Dr. Elena Boretou

Strategic Advisor, BoD and Advisory Board Member with 25+ years of experience in strategy, transformation, and business model innovation. I support founders and executives make smarter strategic decisions at pivotal moments, focusing on three core areas: strategy, business model optimization, and transformation.

I advise all-stage startups, spin-offs, and senior leadership teams through tailored engagements that drive clarity, traction, and growth. My career spans startups to multinationals such as Deutsche Telekom Group–OTE, EY, Deloitte, KPMG, and the Athens 2004 Olympics, where I led initiatives in strategic transformations, new market entries, and revenue growth across telecom, finance, FMCG, and consulting.

In the entrepreneurial ecosystem, I have helped raise €2M+ in pre-seed funding, negotiate deals with multinational companies, and guide ventures toward sustainable scaling across diverse industries and markets.

I bring a mix of leadership experience, entrepreneurial mindset, and cross-sector insight—always in a hands-on, practical, and results-oriented way—to help organizations grow and transform at every stage.

I welcome engagements with founders, executives, and boards, as well as select Advisory Board and Board of Directors opportunities where I can contribute strategic insight, practical execution, and cross-sector expertise to help organizations grow and transform.
