About theKnowledge Hub

Democratizing partnership knowledge to help companies build capital-efficient growth through strategic partnerships.

The Problem We're Solving

Unlike sales, which has abundant resources and frameworks, partnerships have been uncharted territory. Quality guidance was scarce, especially for startups trying to integrate partnerships into their business models during critical growth stages.

In the early days, navigating complex collaborative relationships meant experimenting without guidance, embracing uncertainty, and establishing deep trust without a playbook. The sheer volume of information available today can be overwhelming, and filtering through the noise to find actionable and affordable guidance remains a hurdle for many.

This Knowledge Hub was created to change that—to provide the frameworks and resources that weren't available when companies first started building partnership programs.

Our Mission

Accessible Knowledge

Practical Frameworks

The Journey Behind It

For 20 years, I developed partnerships across various fields, with the last decade helping SaaS companies turn partnerships into their most capital-efficient growth channel.

Having navigated the early days when quality partnership guidance was scarce—driving over 55% of revenue through partnerships and expanding into Europe, North America, and Asia—I experienced firsthand what works and what doesn't.

This Knowledge Hub is the resource I wish I'd had when starting out. It combines decades of hands-on experience with a commitment to making partnership knowledge accessible to everyone.
