You Do What?

Ciaran writes, consults and speaks on virtually every aspect of entrepreneurship. He is passionate about early-stage ventures and working with bright, driven, positive people.

Companies and organizations have brought Ciaran in to help them (re)design their products, market their business, launch their startups, prepare for funding and improve sales. Sometimes he works alone. Other times he’ll bring in a carload of clowns to help.

Each project and client is a very important and enjoyable part of my life. Some of what I do:

  • blog – I just can’t seem to keep quiet about technology, entrepreneurship and startups. So I occasionally write short pieces for this site and one of my projects, PitchMeTV.
  • broadcast & production – Though I spend a lot of time behind the “camera” I might sometimes be seen in front of it, on a good hair day, being interviewed, recording a podcast or interviewing a business personality.
  • speaking & presentations – I speak and present on topics related to entrepreneurship, technology and getting things done.
  • consulting, advising & board participation – I work with a select circle of colleagues to help them create better products, attain sales traction, market themselves better and improve internal processes.
  • mentoring – I also mentor individuals as part of my involvement with Tech Coast Venture Network.

Active Projects:

  • Currently working on a new stealth startup (shhh)
  • Currently a Board Member and Chairman Emeritus at TCVN (www.tcvn.org)
