Driving Business Growth & Transformation As a seasoned Financial Transformation Director with over 18 years of diverse industry experience, I excel in driving financial turnarounds and strategic restructurings for complex projects. My expertise spans financial management, strategic planning, and Mergers & Acquisitions across sectors like manufacturing, professional services, retail, construction, and energy. Recently, I embarked on a groundbreaking venture in the realm of artificial intelligence, recognizing its transformative potential in the financial sector. This led to the founding of LinkaX, an AI-powered platform designed to revolutionize the way businesses approach mergers and acquisitions. At LinkaX, we harness advanced AI algorithms to match companies based on their potential for growth and value creation. Our platform offers a unique, data-driven approach to identifying synergies between businesses, enabling more strategic, informed, and profitable decisions in the M&A space. This venture is a testament to my commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology in financial consultancy, ensuring that businesses can leverage AI to maximize value from their mergers and acquisitions, setting a new standard in strategic business matchmaking. I enjoy networking and making connections across industries. Feel free to reach out .

linkaXCo-Founder

Jun. 2023Sydney, New South Wales, AustraliaWelcome to LinkaX, the cutting-edge AI-powered platform that revolutionizes business mergers, acquisitions, and strategic partnerships. Www.linkax.com.au At its core, LinkaX is an intelligent platform that uses artificial intelligence to match businesses based on their strategic fit and growth potential. Gone are the days of laborious manual searches for the perfect acquisition target, strategic buyer, or growth partner. With LinkaX, businesses are effortlessly connected to their best-fit growth opportunities. The LinkaX AI engine is the heart of this game-changing platform. It calculates four critical synergy scores – Strategic, Revenue, Financial, and Cost Synergy – unlocking a treasure trove of top-notch deal opportunities for exploration. These synergy scores empower SMEs to efficiently screen deals and make informed growth-focused decisions. Privacy is our priority at LinkaX. Business profile details are only used by the AI engine to calculate synergy scores and find the best possible business deal fit for each SME. Businesses remain anonymous until mutual interest is established. Once both SMEs express interest and sign the electronic Non-Disclosure Agreement, their identities will be revealed. Matched businesses gain access to our exclusive virtual deal room, where they collaborate with a pool of experienced lawyers, consultants, service providers, investors, and lending institutions. This streamlined process ensures smooth negotiations and collaborations, taking control of their deals and partnerships. Our mission is to empower SMEs and level the playing field with AI technology, regardless of size or industry. At LinkaX, we believe every business deserves the opportunity to thrive. Welcome to the forefront of B2B matchmaking, where innovation and technology create unprecedented growth opportunities. LinkaX – The Future of Business Partnerships.
