I collaborate on materials development, scale-up strategy, and proposal coordination — at the boundary between science and industry.
What I can help with
- Deep-tech commercialization & scale-up strategy — moving a technology from bench through pilot to industrial demonstration (TRL 2–7), with a realistic read on the coupled barriers ahead.
- Grant writing & consortium development — EU / Horizon, Nordic, Danish and UN-linked instruments: technical narratives, work packages, and multi-partner consortium design.
- Technical due diligence — for investors in climate-tech and hard-to-abate sectors, drawing on first-hand experience of leading it from the venture side.
- Certification & compliance navigation — ISO 8217, ISCC EU, EBC / Puro.earth, RED II/III, and lifecycle assessment (ISO 14040/44).
- Feedstock & precursor selection, thermochemical process design — pyrolysis and gasification for fuels, biochar/CDR, and now hard-carbon anode materials.
- Applied-AI workflow automation — document and data harmonization, translation, and model-reliability engineering.
- Teaching, supervision & executive education — entrepreneurship and innovation, taught from lived venture cases.
How I engage
| Model | Description |
|---|---|
| Advisory / fractional | Technical or strategic advisor to a venture, fund, or programme. |
| Consortium partner | Named partner or work-package lead in a funded project. |
| Principal investigator | Research collaborator on thermochemical / carbon-materials work. |
| Due-diligence expert | Independent technical assessment for investors. |
| Educator | Guest lectures, supervision, executive and incubator teaching. |
Who I work with
- Research groups: DTU, Aalborg University, CEA-LITEN, Fraunhofer IKTS, and other European battery and bioenergy labs
- Industry: Shipping and energy companies (fuel validation), battery manufacturers (materials qualification), agricultural processors (feedstock supply)
- Startups & investors: Pre-seed to Series A climate-tech ventures; grant strategy and non-dilutive funding support
- Multilateral agencies: UNDP, UNIDO, Danida — technology demonstration in emerging economies
