ABOUT GAYLE HARRISON
As a leader in venture building and innovation, I specialise in scaling businesses from early-stage start-ups to high-growth ventures, leveraging a unique blend of corporate expertise, entrepreneurial experience, and strategic leadership. I have worked across global brands, scale-ups, and founder-led businesses, developing a deep understanding of what drives successful innovation and commercial growth.I thrive in fast-paced, high-impact environments, working with founders and innovators to validate ideas, refine business models, and drive commercial success. Whether it’s securing funding, launching new ventures, or scaling existing businesses, I have a track record of turning concepts into thriving enterprises. At Heineken, I led high-profile global innovation initiatives; at Molson Coors, I built an innovation incubation programme that reduced time-to-market by 50%; and as the founder of UNTAGGED, a sustainable fashion-tech marketplace, I secured £500k in pre-seed investment, built a loyal user base, and gained first-hand insight into the challenges early-stage ventures face.In my current role within the Growth Studio at E.ON I develop new ventures focused on the decarbonisation of cities.Beyond my operational roles, I am passionate about mentoring and supporting high-growth, mission-driven businesses, with a focus on sustainability, technology, and commercial strategy. I actively engage with start-ups, investors, and accelerators to help emerging ventures refine their business models, secure funding, and scale their impact.
