Five operators who have run the projects they advise on
G5 Consulting is a boutique firm based in Berlin, founded on a simple observation: the advice European market entrants receive is usually written by people who have never delivered the thing they are advising on.
Built from five home markets into one Berlin base
We met in Berlin as engineers, founders and finance operators who had each spent a decade inside large organisations — Hyundai, LG, IAV, Hologic, Ameriabank, EY — and had each watched good businesses stall on entry to Europe for reasons that had nothing to do with their product.
Sometimes it was a compliance requirement discovered too late. Sometimes an investment case that no one had stress-tested against currency. Sometimes an AI pilot that worked in a demo and failed on real users. In every instance the missing thing was the same: someone who had done it before, in that market, in that discipline.
So we built the firm we would have wanted to hire. Five partners, five home markets — Armenia, Italy, South Korea, Turkey and India — and one rule: we only advise on work we have delivered ourselves.
Five experts. Zero generalists.
Electrical engineer turned owner-side project lead, with more than $150M of electrical, construction and infrastructure work delivered across five countries — including a $152M aviation accommodation complex in Doha.

Nanotechnology and physics engineer who led R&D programmes at Hologic in Paris before founding two ventures of his own in energy and diagnostics.
Founder of Zetis and Testblu. Works on regulated R&D, clinical validation strategy, renewable pipelines and process optimisation.
CEO of Decrackle, an audio AI infrastructure company, and founder of Kuvaka Tech — a twenty-person studio that ships AI systems into production on fixed-scope sprints.
Works on AI opportunity mapping, agent orchestration, real-time data platforms and the engineering that makes pilots survive real users.
RWTH Aachen engineer, R&D engineer at IAV GmbH and research associate at TU Berlin, specialising in autonomous driving stacks, robotics and applied AI research.
Works on ADAS/AD integration and validation, sensor systems, simulation programmes and technical due diligence for investors.
Finance project manager at Hyundai Motor, product planning at LG Electronics and mobility analyst at EY — the same market-entry question seen from inside three very different organisations.
Works on market entry strategy, investment cases, joint-venture structuring, FX and treasury frameworks and diligence support.
