Asad is the Practice Lead for Venturing. This means he designs funds, manages portfolios, and works side-by-side to help ideas grow. Asad works across a number of Brink’s programmes, most notably on the EdTech Hub, where he explores how to grow technology ideas in education. He has just returned from a year in Kigali, where he co-led the setup of Brink in East Africa.
Asad has many years of experience supporting growth and change in all types of organisations. He coaches teams (as an ORSC Systems Coach), develops strategy, and executes experiments that help companies test, learn and adapt. He loves to write.
Before Brink, Asad worked in strategy consulting and corporate strategy and innovation for a large professional services firm. He learnt that shifting how big companies work is about shifting the behaviours, incentives and mechanisms around people. So, he joined Brink as its first employee to dive deeper into how to do that.
