• Experience managing international structures (EU, USA, and ideally Asia).
• Deep understanding of AI and data‑driven business models.
• Skilled in building scalable finance and operations architectures.

Who You Are:

• Visionary, strategic, and entrepreneurial leader with creativity, brand sensitivity, and global ambition.
