Arnaud Ds

I am a venture leader with 15 years of experience building and scaling businesses at the intersection of media, technology and enterprise.

I have co-founded and led companies from first idea through fundraising, commercial validation and early scale, negotiating partnerships with global players, structuring deals, and making capital allocation decisions under uncertainty. My background combines entrepreneurial execution with a strong financial foundation (HEC Lausanne, London School of Economics).

Across ventures in media and AI-driven enterprise solutions, I have developed a practical instinct for identifying early signals, spotting cultural and technological shifts, and turning promising concepts into structured, investable propositions.

I bring creative and strategic sensibility, understanding how brand, product and distribution must work together to generate something meaningful.

A distinctive strength of mine is also high-level representation, from events participation to pitches, partnership negotiations, public panels and stakeholder engagement

I am interested to contribute as fractional leader, or in strategic advisory roles, working closely with founders, investors or venture studios to help conceive, structure and grow ambitious and creative companies

If you are building or scaling something that deserves clarity, momentum and conviction-backed execution, I would be glad to connect.
