Helping founders, leadership teams, and SMEs navigate growth, fundraising, and transformation through hands on execution, cross functional leadership, and alignment across operations, technology, finance, marketing, sales, and organisational growth. ✔ Advised 200+ startups and SMEs globally ✔ Supported fundraising initiatives exceeding $25M+ ✔ 10 years in leadership roles at GE ✔ Top Rated with 100% Job Success Score ✔ Startup Mentor at Surrey University and Ignyte Since 2019, I have worked full time as a Strategic Advisor and Fractional COO, partnering with founders, leadership teams, investors, and portfolio companies across growth, fundraising, operational transformation, and scaling initiatives. I combine the discipline, governance, and execution rigor developed during 10 years in leadership roles at GE with the agility and hands on approach required in startups and growing businesses. Unlike specialists focused on a single function, I operate across the business with a 360 degree perspective, aligning people, processes, technology, finance, operations, culture, and governance around common objectives. My role is often to act as the glue between leadership, investors, teams, and external stakeholders, ensuring priorities are clear, communication flows effectively, and execution remains on track. How I Help ✔ Fractional COO and Operational Leadership ✔ Strategic Planning and Execution ✔ Startup Growth and Scaling ✔ Fundraising Readiness, Financial Modelling, and Investor Materials ✔ KPI, OKR, and Performance Management Frameworks ✔ Business Transformation and Process Optimisation ✔ Cross Functional Leadership Across Product, Technology, Operations, Finance, and Commercial Teams ✔ Stakeholder Management Across Leadership Teams, Investors, Boards, Clients, and Partners My Approach I do not just provide recommendations. I work closely with leadership teams to drive execution, remove bottlenecks, align stakeholders, improve communication, establish accountability, and ensure initiatives translate into measurable business outcomes. I am highly data driven, hands on, and comfortable operating in ambiguous environments where priorities evolve quickly and information is incomplete. Whether supporting a startup preparing for its first funding round or a growing business navigating a complex transition, my focus is always the same: helping leadership teams make better decisions, align priorities, and execute with confidence. If you need a strategic partner who can operate across the business, connect strategy with execution, and help your organisation move forward with greater clarity, alignment, and momentum, let's talk.

Venture Builder | Fundraising Advisor | GTM & Personal Branding Strategist I help founders, startups, and professionals build the story, strategy, and systems they need to grow — whether that means raising capital, entering a new market, building a stronger brand, or turning founder expertise into a visible personal brand. Over the last 14+ years, I have worked across venture building, startup acceleration, fundraising, product strategy, go-to-market, and ecosystem development. I am the Co-Founder & CEO of Metric, an AI-powered financial intelligence platform used by 130,000+ businesses across 190 countries. At Metric, I have led product, growth, operations, fundraising, team-building, and market expansion, while raising $2.1M+ from VCs and angel investors. I have also been on the investor side of the table as a Partner at Karavan VC, where we invested in high-growth startups and evaluated hundreds of companies across product, market, scalability, traction, and commercial viability. This gives me a rare combination of founder-side and investor-side experience: I understand what makes a business compelling, what investors look for, and how to turn a company’s raw story into a clear, credible, fundable narrative. My work has included: ⭐ Fundraising Strategy & Investor Readiness Pitch decks, investor narratives, data rooms, fundraising strategy, investor pipelines, financial storytelling, due diligence preparation, and investor communication. ⭐ Go-To-Market & Growth Strategy Market positioning, customer segmentation, launch strategy, brand messaging, acquisition funnels, sales narratives, and growth experiments for early-stage companies. ⭐ Personal Branding for Founders & Professionals Founder positioning, LinkedIn strategy, content pillars, authority-building, profile optimization, and personal brands that attract investors, customers, partners, and opportunities. ⭐ Startup & Venture Building MVP validation, business model design, product-market fit, pricing, monetization, market research, and 0→1 execution. ⭐ Accelerator, Grant & Ecosystem Strategy Program applications, accelerator positioning, non-dilutive funding research, ecosystem mapping, and founder support. I have worked with thousands of entrepreneurs and business owners through roles with the World Bank, USAID, Invest2Innovate, Karavan VC, and Metric. At the World Bank, I helped design and implement a $3M program focused on access to early-stage finance. With USAID, I delivered business-building workshops to nearly 1,000 entrepreneurs across tier 2 and tier 3 cities. At Invest2Innovate, I led strategy and accelerator programs, working closely with hundreds of founders across multiple industries and geographies. My background also includes participation in global startup networks and programs including 500 Global and Hub71, which has given me direct exposure to international fundraising standards, accelerator selection, investor readiness, and the kind of narrative early-stage companies need to stand out. In addition to my venture and fundraising work, I have built a personal audience of 75,000+ across Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok, creating content for founders, professionals, and business owners. I also hosted a business-focused morning show segment for nearly four years and have taught entrepreneurship at the undergraduate level. Clients usually work with me when they need more than execution. They need someone who can think like a founder, understand investors, sharpen the business story, and turn scattered ideas into a clear strategy. I can help you with: ✓ Pitch deck strategy and investor narrative ✓ Fundraising readiness and data room structure ✓ Investor research and pipeline development ✓ GTM strategy for early-stage businesses ✓ Brand positioning and messaging ✓ Founder and executive personal branding ✓ LinkedIn/content strategy ✓ Accelerator and grant applications ✓ Business model and market validation ✓ Startup growth and venture-building support If you are building something ambitious and need someone who understands both the startup journey and the investor lens, I can help you create the structure, story, and strategy to move forward with confidence.

I help clients make sense of complex ideas and turn them into strategies and content that are clear, practical, and persuasive. Before AI, I completed both my undergraduate and graduate studies, writing a 100+ page masters thesis entirely on my own. That background taught me how to dig deep, analyze critically, and write with impact. Over the past 10+ years, I’ve worked across sectors including education, nonprofits, business, immigration, sustainability, and creative industries, giving me the range to adapt to different needs and audiences. Now, in 2025, I use tools like AI smartly. Not to replace my work, but to streamline research, spark ideas, and deliver faster. You’ll always get thoughtful, proactive, human-driven work that informs, inspires, and delivers measurable results supported by the best tools available. ⸻ How I Can Help You 🔍 Research & Strategy • Competitor & market analysis • Needs assessments & feasibility studies • Qualitative & quantitative research • Program development, evaluation & impact reports • Business plans, proposals & strategic documents ✍️ Content Development & Writing • SEO blogs, articles, whitepapers & newsletters • Company profiles, landing pages & website copy • Brand messaging, proposals, templates & internal docs • Campaigns, social media content & thought leadership pieces • E-courses, training materials, scripts & educational content • Digital products • Translation & multilingual content (English, Persian/Farsi, Kurdish/Sorani) ⸻ Keywords research consultant, strategy consultant, market research, competitor analysis, needs assessment, qualitative research, quantitative research, business plans, proposals, SEO blog writing, whitepapers, newsletters, social media content, landing page copy, website copywriter, brand messaging, storytelling, content strategist, internal documents, e-learning content, academic writing, translation, immigration content, sustainability writing, NGO strategy, nonprofit writing, startup consultant, education content, cultural writing, thought leadership, ghostwriting, travel itineraries, reels, ChatGPT

I'm Kamil Dzikowski, a serial entrepreneur born and educated in Poland and living in the UAE. All my life (since I can remember), I have been passionate about technology. When I was small, my biggest passion was disassembling every electric toy and electronic device to check what was inside and how it worked. Probably, this led me to obtain a Master's Degree in Applied Computer Science, then a Master's Degree in Management and graduate from PhD studies in Automatics and Robotics. My career began in the UK while working with a company offering internet services I had the opportunity to learn programming but also set up and manage servers, firewalls etc. Now, 20 years later, I have some quite interesting experience, which includes becoming a Magento Certified Developer, building a few successful startups, leading some great teams, having my own web development company for a few years, being a founder of a startup which raised over $15M and generated $60M in Revenues (featured in Forbes Middle East) and most recently I became a Vice Chairman of Polish Business Council in Dubai. Beyond my professional ventures, I'm passionate about mentoring and coaching budding entrepreneurs and professionals to reach their full potential. I hope I can help you with your career growth and achieving success. If you have questions or seek guidance, feel free to reach out. Let's embark on this journey together!
