let's do smth, together
60 min call. €200
For one specific decision. Send context beforehand, and we spend the hour on the decision rather than on background.
Ongoing work: from €3,000 per month
Regular calls, and written answers to the questions that decide things. We agree the scope before we start. Three months minimum, because anything shorter doesn't produce a result.
To book, write to [email protected].
I can help with
Scaling an education business
Unit economics that survive contact with reality. Funnel, completion and employment rates. What breaks when you go from hundreds of students to tens of thousands — and what breaks again when you enter a new market.
Product and AI strategy
Positioning, roadmap, and above all what not to build. Useful for education products and for AI products generally — I'm building one now.
Programme and curriculum design
Curriculum, formats, assessment. How to work with teachers and mentors so that quality doesn't collapse as you add people.
Brand and corporate partnerships
Bringing a major brand into an educational or social programme as both funder and participant. With adidas we built six football pitches and reached 8M+ views; also Miro, Tinkoff Bank, Strelka Institute, and special projects for Google and Look At Media.
Nonprofits and community projects — free or at cost, a couple of slots each quarter.
