Turning Europe’s and national defence and space agenda into business opportunities for industry.
For over 30 years, I have worked at the heart of the European defence, security and space ecosystem — across EU institutions, national administrations and leading think tanks. Today through MSB, I bring that experience to industry, translating European and national defence trends into business opportunities for industry, and staying alongside your teams for successful implementation.
That’s what makes the real difference
