Jeff Powell’s Summary

More than twenty years experience as an Entrepreneur, Business owner, Business consultant- specializing in supporting projects which are difficult being accomplished in time; and Investor in SMEs around the world.

The last few years I have specialized in supporting companies in addressing large complex global challenges facing different industries. I also represent several environmental organizations who have solutions for some of the larger environmental challenges facing us.

I spent the first half of my work life in Europe and has spent the last ten years working primarily in Asia and Europe, which gives me a rather unique perspective in this emerging global economy. I have worked in over 25 countries.
