Case Studies

DesignRush 2019–2022

Scaling a B2B Directory from Zero to 14k Agencies

The Challenge

A 4-person startup wanted to become the go-to B2B directory for brands to find agencies. They had zero agencies in the directory and no team to source them.

The Result

Built outreach team from scratch (0→30 people), designed and executed large-scale prospecting campaigns, and grew directory from 0→14,000 agencies in 3 years. Company scaled to 100+ employees.

Vision Business Development 2023–April 2026

Connecting European to GCC Investment

The Challenge

European tech companies and innovations had no clear pathway to GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) investors. Cultural and market gaps made direct outreach ineffective.

The Result

Developed cross-border business development strategy, sourced investment partnerships, and facilitated connections between European businesses and GCC partners. Leveraged dual market presence (Europe/Abu Dhabi).

Thomson Reuters 2016–2017

Eastern Market Research & Tool Development

The Challenge

Thomson Reuters needed insights into complex corporate relationships across Eastern markets and a tool to analyze cross-regional data efficiently.

The Result

Analyzed corporate hierarchies across Cyprus, China, India, and Malaysia. Led development of Thomson Reuters Translation Tool. Trained and coordinated global teams.

Multiple European & US SMEs 2024–2026

Market Entry Strategy for Ukraine

The Challenge

European and US SMEs wanted to capitalise on Ukraine's $240B+ reconstruction opportunity but lacked market knowledge, local partnerships, and a clear entry strategy. They faced regulatory complexity, partner vetting challenges, and timeline uncertainty.

The Result

Developed market entry strategies, identified and vetted local partners, and navigated regulatory requirements.
