About Tiny
Freelance Finance Consultant | M&A • Fundraising • Strategy
I help investors, founders, and leadership teams navigate complex financial decisions — whether it’s raising capital, preparing for an exit, or identifying growth opportunities through strategic M&A.
With hands-on experience at Lazard (investment banking) and Gimv (private equity), I bring a unique combination of analytical rigour, strategic insight, and clear communication. My background includes multi-million euro transactions across sectors such as consumer goods, industrials, and healthcare.
At Lazard, I supported high-stakes transactions like the IPO of Azelis, the acquisition of Mydibel by Clarebout, and the divestment of Royal BAM’s Belgian subsidiaries. At Gimv, I focused on investment analysis, add-on screening, and internal decision-making processes.
What I can help you with:
- M&A Advisory: Buy- & sell-side support: due diligence, financial modeling, valuations, and investor presentations.
- Fundraising & Investor Readiness: Development of clear, credible Series A/B pitch decks, business plans, and data room materials that resonate with investors.
- Capital Markets & IPO Preparation: Support with investor materials, equity story building, market positioning, and pre-IPO communication.
- Strategic Research: Market & competitor benchmarking, industry mapping, and opportunity scans for scale-ups or PE-backed companies.
- PE Portfolio Support: Add-on target identification, commercial analysis, and portfolio performance reviews.
- Business Storytelling: I translate complex data into compelling investor messaging — backed by strong public speaking and pitch coaching experience.
💡 Whether you're a founder preparing for your first raise or a fund looking to streamline deal execution — I bring clarity, speed, and precision to every engagement.
