Hey, I'm Patrick.

The Fast Thinker. The Blunt Trailblazer.
I've run creative companies for over two decades. Currently retired, I'm consulting in the creative space.

I support fellow creative studio owners, agencies and solos in selling smarter instead of working harder. We work on the Achilles Heel —business strategy, sales and marketing.

Expertise

The Creative Sector

Launched post-dot-com bubble, my first firm, Misme, gained accolades for pioneering interactive websites and brand designs featured in iconic books of that era.

Over two decades, I've led firms in branding, marketing, design, film
and CGI & VFX, learning that in the creative sector, "client-winning" far outweighs "award-winning".

From this foundation, I provide strategic advisory, growth and brand
building to both emerging and established firms in the creative sector

Technology, Space & Deep Tech

My expertise is centered around a core theme: bridging tech innovation with its users.

From co-founding tech companies like DitoGear, kickstarting deep-tech moonshots like PowerBloom, to revitalizing brands like VAIO and Gateway with Microsoft and Intel, I learned that technology does not speak for itself.

Supporting launches for major players like Huawei and Alibaba, required consistently bridging the gap between technology and people.

Core Philosophy

At the heart of my approach is a commitment to envisioning, leading, and future-proofing B2B brands, ensuring they remain relevant and competitive.
