Dainu Devis, strategist to governments, boards and founders

I turn complex problems into systems that scale.

Strategist to governments, boards and founders.

01.

The
through
line

I connect the disciplines that rarely speak, then make the idea executable.

Aerospace research. National telecommunications. Economic strategy. Technology. The best answers live at the intersections. I find the gap that has been normalised, connect the fields that hold the solution, and design the system that delivers it.

Dainu Devis is a business and economic strategist who advises governments, boards and founders on market entry and go to market.

What I am
retained
for

Three kinds of work.

Strategy for governments and institutions

Economic, digital and market strategy that a cabinet or a board can approve.

Market entry and go to market

Positioning, compliance, distribution and a staged launch plan for entering new markets.

Building and scaling technology

Platforms that replace complexity for the industries enterprise software has ignored.

03.

Selected
engagements,
anonymised

A short record of decision grade work.

National economic and tourism strategy.

Advised a national tourism authority on a technology enabled destination operating model. Eight recommendations, one ministerial decision.

Read the engagement

A board ready Australian market entry blueprint for an international manufacturer of a regulated product. One document, one board decision.

Read the engagement

Group governance and stakeholder design.

Ownership, accountability and stakeholder architecture for a multi entity technology group. A complex structure made governable.

04.

The
Concurrent
Method

One method behind every engagement.

A Master of Engineering from UNSW in Concurrent Product and Process Design. I design the idea, the route to market and the system in parallel. Most work builds one at a time. I build them together.

05.

Ventures
as
proof

I do not only advise the build.
I have done the build.

The clearest evidence the thinking works: Sharktech Global, a portfolio of platforms built for the industries enterprise software has always overlooked.

Technology should restore purpose, not compete for attention.

Every platform is held to a single test. Does it give an ordinary person or business a genuine capability they could not access before.
