I spent over a decade in Asia, primarily in China, helping VC and PE firms deploy and return capital in fast-growth markets. Back in the UK, I founded 4 Oceans Capital, a firm dedicated to helping startups and scaleups access the capital and strategic insights they need to succeed. Through Tollejo, I help high-growth businesses achieve disruptive growth by delivering strategy, brand, and operational excellence. Now, with The Grumpy Scotsman, I’m cutting through the noise of modern entrepreneurship—sharing raw, unfiltered insights on building businesses, securing funding, and navigating the real challenges of the hustle. 💬 Let’s talk: Investing | Raising Capital | Growth Strategy | Media & Monetiation
