Strategy and capital, where animals are still the asset
I help boards, investors and public agencies make better decisions about livestock – the farms, the supply chains and the policy environment that surrounds them.
Twenty years across dairy, meat, feed, public governance and applied livestock research, on both the technical and the financial side.
Three things, done at depth – for clients who already sense the easy answers no longer hold
Strategic advisory, investment cases and farm transformation – built on twenty years of working between the barn and the spreadsheet.

ΔιάβασεI grew up near Greek farms. Today I sit between the barn and the boardroom
From day one, the questions that interested me were not just biological. Why does one farm in the same valley earn three times what its neighbour earns? Why does a producer with brilliant product stop being competitive after year five? Why does a perfectly designed CAP scheme fail on the ground?
My work today sits at three intersections: livestock data and capital; farm operations and policy; the Greek sector and the wider European context.
