Entrepreneurship and innovation
Contamination Lab, the Internet+ competition and co-founding Affinexus Canada Inc.
Research is most useful when it leaves the lab. Alongside my academic work I have taken part in startup programmes and co-founded a company.
Contamination Lab XVIII (2024)
The UnivPM Contamination Lab brings together students from different disciplines to develop startup ideas. Selected from a pool of several hundred applicants, I worked in a team of high school and master’s students on a business plan and funding pitch.
Internet+ competition (2024)
Our proposal, Support for Rural Revitalization through e-Mobility, won a Silver Award in the 2024 Internet+ Innovation and Entrepreneurship competition organised by the Shanghai regional government, among thousands of international proposals.
Affinexus Canada Inc. (2025)
I co-founded Affinexus, a data-driven marketing venture that applies analytics to growth strategy. I led partner onboarding, campaign optimisation and revenue tracking across multiple verticals, and I am responsible for strategic planning, client communication and operations in the EU.
