Daniel Bloodworth's Linkedin Analytics

20 years in developing, taking to market and scaling technology solutions. Key highlights: - Founded CNL Middle East in 2012 and grew it from $0 to $3m+ annual revenue in under 5 years. - Led the pitch for CNL's acquisition by Everbridge in 2020 for approx. $36m. - Created technical roadmap and GTM strategy to integrate the on-premise perpetual product into a SaaS platform. - Expertise in both sides of M&A (seller/buyer). - Firm believer in 'show me the money' over FOMO/hype fundraising. After overcoming the many challenges of launching a business in a new region, scaling that business to a point where I could safely hand it off, and navigating the inner workings of an enterprise product team, I founded rZr Labs to focus on 3 things: 1. Providing innovative tech startups and SMEs a stepping stone to break into the GCC market. 2. Advising founders and CEOs to scale to their fullest potential, whether that be through product-led growth, innovative GTM tactics, or fundamental business growth strategies. 3. Consulting with enterprise organizations who are looking to boost innovation from within, without disrupting their day to day operations. I continue to be involved in the physical security technology space, supporting the many friends and former clients (not mutually exclusive) in the industry, and I am always happy to share my thoughts and learnings. As a natural technologist, I still enjoy getting my teeth into product & engineering, and struggle not to vent at people or companies using terms like 'deep-hyper-disruptive-AI-Web3-metaverses' without substance. If any of the above sound interesting to you, drop me message and I will always get back to you.
