Every Engagement Starts With a Conversation
I work with founders, CMOs, and event organisers across Asia — from startup advisory and digital marketing to keynotes and corporate training. Tell me what you're working on and I'll tell you honestly if I can help.

A quick note on how I work
I take on a handful of advisory, speaking, and training engagements at a time so I can actually show up properly. If I'm not the right fit, I'll tell you — and I'll try to point you to someone who is.

Booking me for your event?
A few things worth knowing: I customise every talk to your audience — no recycled decks. I'm low-maintenance and well-prepared (your AV team will thank you). And I'm happy to do a pre-event call with your team so the session lands exactly right.
Include your event name, date, and topic area in the form and I'll confirm availability within 3 business days.

What happens after you reach out?

Usually faster. I'll ask a few questions to understand what you need.

Clear scope, timeline, and pricing. No surprises.
A quick heads-up
I'm not able to take free mentoring or consulting calls — my advisory work is structured and I want to give it the time it deserves. If you're looking to pitch a product or service, this isn't the right channel. And if you're looking for investment, please send pitch decks through chutneygroup.com instead.

Thanks for reaching out. I'll get back to you within 3 business days.
