About

I am a consultant, adviser and interim executive helping business leaders and investors develop breakaway growth and innovation strategies.

Over the last 15 years, I have achieved this by developing and introducing new business models and technologies to new marketplaces, occasionally creating the ecosystem in the process. My clients include 30 Global 1000 companies, 60+ startup companies, three national governments and several widely known foundations.

My current focus is helping mature companies evaluate their core differentiators, understanding key business drivers and leveraging communities within the business lifecycle. I also continue to work with startup companies where I have board and/or advisory positions, helping them on business and technology strategies, as well as investor introductions.

I'm always open to discussing new ventures or opportunities. Feel free to contact me at chris [at] chrismaresca [dot] com or via one of the social networks I am on:
