ActaMille is a specialized consultancy firm helping organizations in life sciences, neuroscience, neurotechnology, and medtech turn complex challenges into strategic growth opportunities. With more than 20 years of international experience at the intersection of academia, industry, policy, and scientific innovation, I provide senior-level expertise to organizations seeking to expand impact, strengthen operations, and build meaningful partnerships.

I have executive leadership experience in leading strategy, revenue development, stakeholder engagement, governance, communications, and organizational transformation. This experience includes managing multimillion-dollar budgets, cross-functional teams, governing boards, advisory councils, and global scientific communities.

I can support you with:

• Operations & organizational development: setting up or improving structures, processes, governance, and team performance
• Business development & growth strategy: identifying revenue opportunities, partnerships, and sustainable expansion models
• Lead generation: generating qualified leads through in-person networking and relationship-building at scientific conferences
• Stakeholder engagement: connecting academia, industry, investors, policymakers, and scientific communities
• Executive advisory services: strategic counsel for founders, boards, and C-suite leaders
• Product & program management: guiding innovation initiatives from concept to execution
• Funding & public affairs: navigating public/private funding landscapes, grants, incentives, and policy environments
• Strategic communications & brand positioning; building visibility, trust, and market presence
• Organizing the office cake roster: often overlooked but oh so important for office morale
• Coordination of the staff outing playlist: ensuring all eras of Metallica are represented
• Having opinions on your file naming “system” and “MISC” desktop folder: That draft_final_FINAL_v3_USETHIS file is unacceptable, I’m sorry if that’s harsh but we have to have some standards here.

Network

I’ve spent 20+ years building an extensive international network which enables me to open doors, create partnerships, and accelerate opportunities for my clients.

• International: an extensive network in neuroscience that spans researchers, startup founders, corporate executives, scientific societies, funding bodies, and public institutions
• the Nordic countries: scientifically broader and also includes big pharmaceutical companies and government bodies.

• Embedded consultant: fixed term and %, for example interim CEO, COO, or CMO
• Project-based consultant: a defined project with a set deliverable and time frame
• Formal advisor: a regular engagement with founders and leadership who need a thinker more than a doer
• Speaker/coach: workshops for building capacity around operations, business development, relationship management, and communications
