What I'm looking for

I'm looking to bring my founder-led, AI-augmented operating style to an executive role where I can build new markets, lead cross-functional teams, own commercial outcomes, and create premium client experiences.

I've founded and scaled Angels & Partners, Seven Event Company, and a luxury jewelry venture across Turkey, the EU, and the US. Through SEC, I directed 300+ international medical and corporate events with full ownership of sponsorship, delegate revenue, and end-to-end delivery.

I've led multicultural teams of 20–150+ across sales, operations, hospitality, marketing, and technology, while building multi-million-euro revenue streams in congresses, consultancy, e-commerce, and short-term rentals. I bring a long-horizon, founder's approach to market expansion, premium client experience, AI-enabled workflows, and commercially disciplined execution.
