Holm
,
Business Strategist
from
Florida
With a profound passion for innovation, technology, entrepreneurship, and community, my career spans over 30 years at the executive level, where I've led multinational organizations, NGOs, and startups with a focus on driving innovation, fostering economic growth, and effecting positive change in communities.
I commenced my journey with Accenture, overseeing a team of systems analysts in Hong Kong and pioneering the implementation of the first phase of an electronic trading platform for the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Subsequently, as the Asia Pacific Marketing Director for Thomson Reuters, I played a pivotal role in shaping the digital landscape. More recently, I contributed to the success of GenoBank.io, a digital health startup, where my efforts resulted in securing over >$1M in funding for its decentralized genetic data encryption/blockchain platform.
As a 2X founder, I bring extensive experience in bootstrapping, securing funding, and scaling businesses. I founded a successful food and beverage startup and established a chain of clothing stores in Southern Spain.
Distinguished as a cross-cultural expert, I've dedicated myself to forging strategic partnerships and fostering community engagement across diverse global markets. My achievements include notable success in regions such as Hong Kong, China, Malaga, Spain, and Copenhagen, Denmark. Fluent in Danish and Spanish, I navigate international landscapes with cultural nuance, amplifying the impact of my global initiatives.
Beyond my professional endeavors, I am committed to contributing as a woman executive, recognizing the transformative power of diverse perspectives. My active championing of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) extends to supporting initiatives promoting gender equality and contributing to a more inclusive and impactful business landscape. I currently serve as the Founding Co-Chair of the All Raise Miami Chapter Committee, on a mission to accelerate the success of female and non-binary investors to build a more prosperous, equitable future. I am also in the VC Lab Venture Institute Cohort 3 program.
Expertise: supporting growth in Florida's tech and startup ecosystem, global marketing communications and public relations, systems design, community building, fundraising, strategic partnership development, strategic planning and management, business transformation, civic engagement, leadership, team building, project management, and operational controls.
