Jacob Aldridge

Since the mid-2000s Jacob has been travelling the world as an international business advisor and keynote speaker, primarily in Asia-Pacific, Europe, and North America. Working with more than 300 companies globally, most of his greatest commercial successes are a result of working directly with business owners who find themselves stuck. They need guidance from someone who understands all the different aspects of business at enough depth to practically turn their dreams into reality.

Jacob’s alumni clients and colleagues describe him as the smart and quirky business guy who makes things happen. At every stage from Start Up to Exit, he brings business experience that impacts both profit and valuation - plus a unique energy borne from the belief that business is best when it's fun.

Deeply intelligent with a keen eye for the off kilter and slightly absurd, Jacob’s topical conversations shift the way we look at how business should be done, and invite us to consider how business can be done if we eliminate our assumptions, embrace the new, and create our own regimes on the pathway to success.

Jacob has presented at Conferences in Australia, the United Kingdom, the USA, and Hong Kong. He splits his time between Europe and Australia, with business coaching clients all over the world.

As a portfolio entrepreneur, he invests in enterprises that leverage his 3 core assets: crafting powerful B2B intellectual property; monetizing this through sound strategic planning; and scaling it through one-to-many communication channels.

And Jacob likes to relax. He once held a Guinness World Record for non-stop movie-watching, and has a lifelong dream of sourcing the world's finest Stracciatella gelati.
