Focused on the intersection between entrepreneurship, education and leadership.
With a diverse range of practical and business experience and qualifications, Sam provides consulting and advisory services to large companies, NGOs and small business / startup founders alike.
With a strong background in strategic planning and implementation of programs, particularly in the entrepreneurship and education sectors, Sam is also interested in and explores themes around technology and digital disruption, generational equity and economic policy.
My vision is a future where it is as natural for students to finish their studies and start their own business as it is for them to work in someone else's.
