About
I am an author and TEDx Speaker with over 20 years of business experience at the interface between leading Business Schools and companies. During my career, I have worked with entrepreneurs, SMEs, multinationals, governments and NGOs, in Germany and world-wide. I have also worked with top academics in the area of the Circular Economy which inspired me to create a practical hands-on programme with focus on entrepreneurs that can be found on Udemy.
I was born and raised in Croatia but lived abroad for three decades (Italy, Germany, Belgium and China). I completed all my studies in Germany, including her Doctorate. In addition, I am also an Alumna of the Harvard Kennedy School Executive Education. Plus, I was invited to deliver a TEDx TALK in Europe.
Today, I am a Managing Partner at MGT OPEN and Grounded Press. Additionally, I am the co-founder of EntrepreneurCircle.World, a membership platform for circular entrepreneurs and investors.
