Novined is an investment company focused on B2B software. We invest as shareholders with deep operating experience, and we know what it takes for a US company to build a successful business in Europe.
Expanding into Europe
Expanded the European operations of Cisco, Revinate and Gupshup, and held Europe-wide responsibility at Cisco and EVBox, growing software businesses to millions in recurring revenue. Experienced in launching new countries and in selecting acquisition targets abroad. As an investor or operator, I can help companies do the same.
Running local operations
Leading local sales, marketing, partner and support teams, with HR and finance alongside, so headquarters can rely on the European business to run. Available through our subsidiary Mustang Powder B.V., only at a company's request and under a separate agreement.
A culture that fits US companies
More than ten years in the US with McKinsey, Cisco and MobiTV, and an MBA from Stanford. European teams with clear targets, regular reporting and direct communication. Culture is difficult to set, and getting it right is one of the things I like most about business.
