I originally entered the gaming industry for my love of games, what has kept me there was my passion for working with unbelievably talented people with such diverse skills, all working collaboratively to create products that bring joy into people’s lives. I thrived in a fast-paced environment with high-stakes and constant changes. This is what allowed me to achieve so much, so early in my career.

My first big break came when I was hired by Gameloft to explore the possibility of expanding into the Japanese market. When I identified that the best route forward was to launch a full-scale Japanese arm of Gameloft, I was charged to leading the new organization. It was a dream come true! I had the chance to build the team up to 100+ and manage the entire company. I learned a lot from this experience which I took to my next role as Managing Director of Blizzard Entertainment Korea.

After Blizzard, I shifted to an outside consulting role, leveraging my executive leadership experience to advise C-Suite leadership teams on expansion strategies for new markets, evaluation of M&A opportunities, effective internal operations processes, and organizational structure. I absolutely loved helping each of these businesses to find solutions and make informed decisions.

As a life turn event I had the opportunity to come back to Europe as COO of Treasure Hunt soon acquired by Huuuge Games where I played the role of Managing Director of Berlin Studio.
More recently, in July 2021, I was appointed Head of International Operations for Storytel

I believe that bringing my 25+ years of professional and personal experience to everyone  I can make the difference in the life of thousand of people, either by helping them take the right direction for their business but also giving to everyone the chance to reflect on their career so far and move to their future path orientation

Since he got back from Silicon Valley in 2018, Nash has been doing two things: he supports entrepreneurs in their projects, from ideation to Series A, and he accelerates transformation, change or innovation topics for medium and large companies.

After 15 years spent creating content (mainly for TV) and communications or production companies, Nash returned to his first love - tech companies - in 2016.

As a "problem solver" at heart, Nash finds great satisfaction in helping companies find solutions to the challenges they face, using inhouse talents, often through Design Sprint.

He’s been coaching around 100 startups a year since 2017.
Nash also writes a tech and innovation newsletter called ‘The Ugly Truth’.
He is half-English, a harpsichord player and the happy father of 4 wonderful daughters.

I had the privilege of spearheading the exploration of new horizons and forging strong partnerships. We raised over $70 million to support this vision (Next40).

But beyond the numbers, what drives me deeply is the desire to share. I've written two books to pass on some of my knowledge, my failures, and my successes.
