I help firms grow their business | Serial entrepreneur (3 x exit) | Entrepreneurship researcher & lecturer | Board member | Consultant

I have twenty-five years of experience in growing businesses from scratch to international presence. As a consultant, as a corporate professional, and as a founder. 

I co-founded three businesses within HR-tech and Med tech, that was acquired by either industry actors or private equity firms. 

It has allowed me to take a four-year break to pursue PhD studies on venture builders and entrepreneurial support. 

Being an entrepreneurial spirit however never leaves you, and while in my last year of my studies I am now returning to my roots as a founder launching a venture studio with a core team of academic and business professionals. 

As every day has 24 hours, I still have time to work with exceptional entrepreneurs and give lectures and talks on entrepreneurship. 

Talk to me about: 

➡️ How to launch a start-up
➡️ How to organize a new firm
➡️ How to develop growth strategies
➡️ How to work with internationalization
➡️ How to prepare for exit

DM me if interested in working with me.

“John Erik has been an invaluable asset in my entrepreneurial journey as a founder and CEO. His support, both morally and strategically, has played a pivotal role in the growth of my business. From the moment we started working together a year ago, John Erik provided the encouragement and advice that helped me navigate the challenges of entrepreneurship with confidence and determination. What truly sets John Erik apart is his ability to offer strategic advice that hits the mark. His insights have helped me shape my company's structure, envision long-term strategies, and lay a solid foundation for future growth and scaling. He's not just an advisor; he's a visionary mentor who understands the intricacies of business growth. I highly recommend John Erik as an advisor and board member, particularly for matters related to growth, scaling, fundraising, and corporate transactions. His expertise and commitment to your success are unparalleled.»
- Raja Skogland, CEO theVisionary Co

"John-Erik supported us when I was raising a new round for Yayloh and putting in place more structure in the company. He is really sharp and will help you see what you don't, when running your business daily. In our case it led us to taking decisions to improve our business performance. I can recommend John-Erik to any founder who wants to assess the business in a very objective manner and get new routines and processes in place to achieve growth and profitability." 
– Sophie Aubard, Founder of Yayloh

🔥From Startups to Systems: How AI Is Rewriting the DNA of Venture Building.

We’ve all heard the mantra: “Build fast, fail fast.”

But what happens when AI tools allows you to build it right, from the very beginning?

The best Venture Builders are quietly leading the next evolution of entrepreneurship.

And those leveraging AI tools aren’t just speeding up ideation and validation…

They’re automating the front-end of venture creation entirely.

Here’s what’s happening 👇

💡 AI-driven Venture Builders use data to test, simulate, and validate opportunities before a human team even sketches the first wireframe.

 📈 Once the front end is automated, focus shifts, from idea generation to customer expansion and network curation: partners, investors, advisors.

 🔁 Over time, this accumulation of relationships and insights transforms the 
Venture Builder into a corporate-like ecosystem capable of adding new products or modules for existing customers, rather than chasing new startups from scratch.

This isn’t just efficiency.

It’s a regime shift, from emergence logic (“let’s see what works”) to production logic (“let’s build systematically on what already works”).

In this new model, traction compounds.

Each new venture isn’t a new bet, it’s an extension of an existing market, taking customers “from 1x to 10x”.

The Venture Builder of tomorrow won’t ask, “What should we start?”

It will ask, “What do our customers need next?”

That’s not just entrepreneurship, it’s entrepreneurial infrastructure.

▶️So here’s my question for you:
Do you believe AI will make venture creation predictive rather than experimental?

Or is the magic of entrepreneurship something that can never be fully systematized?

👇 I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
