Selected work
Case studies
Client engagements, the investment desk, and the operating systems Alex builds and runs day to day. Each case names the period it was delivered in and the seat it was delivered from; work predating TeakCharge is attributed to the chapter it belongs to, and every client appears as a descriptor, never a name.
Client engagements
A single view of the member: CRM discovery for a luxury hospitality group
Full CRM discovery for a members-only hospitality operation: structured interviews to a ranked backlog, a scored vendor shortlist, a tested recommendation.
High-value inventory, and the software business hiding inside it
An inventory system for high-value specialty stock across locations: the specification, the vendor selection, and a board study on spinning it out.
Putting innovation discovery onto AI rails
A corporate discovery front end moved onto AI: five platforms tested against each other, and a live market test where people paid with their own money.
AI-powered investment screening, adopted as the client standard
Ad hoc target sourcing turned into one structured process: a large company universe screened to a qualified shortlist, with a route to partner or acquire.
An operating system for non-core growth
The operating design for a corporate new-business engine, idea to first product, codified into a handbook a team can run without its author.
A China-to-Europe expansion, and the risk that ended it
Europe expansion design for a Chinese energy-technology group. The geopolitical risk named in the first meeting is the one that closed it.
A commercial engine for a longevity platform
A premium longevity facility with no B2B revenue: full commercial architecture, a three-layer institutional channel, and a 90-day plan for real cycles.
Building a new-business engine for a global innovation lab
A corporate innovation lab tests the method on a lane outside its core: structured discovery, two concepts taken to a live test, one reframing pitch.
The investment desk
Due diligence a family office could act on
A S$1M fund commitment put through scored, gated due diligence: nine dimensions, an argued verdict, and the information gaps named explicitly before capital moved.
A co-investment brief that respects the reader
An early-stage quantum-computing round sized honestly: scenarios net of fees, a real bear case, and a section on who should not invest.
Running the investment arm of a family on AI rails
Running a concentrated family portfolio ahead of its benchmark, on an AI operations layer that keeps the research, monitoring, and decision discipline honest.
Systems I run
The AI operating estate I run my own practice on
The multi-agent, governance-as-code operating estate this whole practice runs on: rules that run as code, a verified builder fleet, and memory that compounds.
A B2B sales engine for an SME-scale operation
Enterprise sales discipline rebuilt so a lean team runs it: structured stages, response clocks, drop-ball detection, every message still sent by a human.
