„Funding your game with Love“
Looking forward to Work with your Teams as Coach, expert, or Mentor; Run Ideation Workshops or ignite your audience as stage host
Smart combinations are key:
The Funding Puzzle
Every company, every team, every game is different. Where you are at, which experience you bring, who you are targeting. It is a broad combination of different steps, skill-sets and messages. Working on a game – or any creative project actually – is great fun and super motivating in itself. Building a company around it and getting it into the hands of your target group can and should be to!
FunDING PIECES
Gathering resources for production never was easy. It seems to have become more difficult in recent years. But at the same time many new opportunities arise. It’s all about identifying the right piece for the right moment in production – and combinding them in a smart way to create the picture you are playing for.
Creative Business
Building a business around your creative production is a game in itself. It comes with its own rules, players, pieces, timelines and strategies. Gather those resources, make a plan, and set your goals in order to prepare for the adventure ahead. And if done right, it can actually be fun!
Marketing
Remember that tree that fell in the forest, but no human was there to witness it? So we are actually not sure if it fell at all? Easier said than done, but do game and talk about it! Let’s work on easy to achieve goals and steps to getting your profile clear and your messages out.
Network
With 20+ years of experience in running business events, working as funding advisor, supporting Kickstarter creators, and career steps in academia or journalism I accumulated more than 8.000 connections on LinkedIn alone. Let’s build on this network.

Some notes on methods and services
Every business, every project, every mission is different: but they all deserve the same amount of love.
LISTEN AND CUSTOMIZE
Before we dive in, let’s talk! I am curious to learn about your existing plans, your motives, your goals and passion. This helps me dive in to where it’s needed most.
FROM IDEA TO CONCEPT
For workshops and ideation sessions, let’s go ‚blue sky‘, then brainstorm, collect, and order. Decide. Make an action plan and distribute work-packages.
ADAPTED TOOLS
There are a bunch of useful tools we can adjust in order to make them add value to your journey. I base my work on SWOT, BMC, GTD, PARA, and KANBAN methods.
PRESENTING AND MODERATING
With years of experience on stage, opening big industry events, moderating panel discussions, and hosting conferences, I would love to share and contribute to your program.
