Noventum Advisory was founded by Ross Thompson, an experienced CEO and commercial and operational leader with nearly two decades of hands-on experience building, scaling and commercialising regional businesses into global technology leaders.

Ross has led growth across manufacturing, automation, electrification, energy efficiency, the circular economy, asset lifecycle management, low-carbon infrastructure, mining and renewable energy. That breadth gives Noventum Advisory a practical understanding of how to turn strategy into execution in complex, fast-moving markets.

We combine deep sector intelligence with operational leadership experience, from market entry and commercialisation to capital raising, M&A, turnarounds, partnerships and multi-region expansion, so clients can accelerate growth, de-risk decisions and capture value in rapidly evolving markets.
