Andrew Paterson is a revered (apparently) Professor of Practice teaching Strategy, Innovation & Entrepreneurship. His teaching is unconventional and rooted in mistakes and real-life utility — not textbook theory. He taught at INSEAD, HEC, LBS, and RBS and is currently at EDHEC, ESCP & KEDGE. He writes about adventures in innovative education on his blog The Unrecycled Educator. Andrew mentors a few select founders, currently Runnrz, and remains actively involved in several early-stage ventures soon to be announced. He’s currently invested in Dryk, SP3D, Mapstr, Drone Ag, HelloSubs. Previously he founded, co-founded, advised or led bizdev in over 25 ventures, including Birdseye, Laneo, GuidiGO, Doblet, SharePay, IDEN, Maybe, Allassa, CityMapper, Hyves and Neardesk. He also worked on frontier tech at Google (Glass & Tango), and spent time at Boardriders, Compass Group, Shell, and Hertz. Andrew also runs workshops for Startups & SMB’s with the CCI-NA & Région NA, and occasionally jumps into public-private initiatives. He refuels with practical shooting, photographing doors, good food & coffee, carry-on travel, and unplugging in Finistère. Lucky in life, he pays it forward on Kiva. DM on X anytime.
