I've spent the last 9 years working in early stage startups, doing 2x Country Manager roles in NYC & London, managing teams and selling as an IC. I'm now spending quite a lot of time learning & consulting and advising. Some of my current projects in January 2026 includes:
Working with a UK PE roll-up investing very rapidly into the UK MSP market. I'm using AI + automation to identify the market and engage the market. Having lots of fun using Firecrawl + Claude + Python to automate a lot the process involved in finding 8k target companies from a TAM of 240k potential targets. Headhunting for some early stage AI & crypto companies as a solo talent advisor. Enjoying telling people my honest view on an opportunity, not the one that necessarily gets them to take the job. Building a project tracker & blog at hardware.ventures that highlights the coming wave of hardware innovation in the UK. Researching the UK hardware space, talking to CNC machinists & contemplating buying a 3D printer. Spending more time with my 2 lovely kids and very patient wife. Running. I ran to Paris in October 2025, and I'm going to run the whole of Hadrian's Wall in July.

I will try to write more here, but if you want to chat or work together feel free to send an email to: josh@grets.xyz
