Sophie Krantz is an explorer. Occasionally on mountains, often at sea, always with business leaders around the world.


For more than two decades, I’ve worked at the intersection of global strategy, innovation, and network-building. My career began at the United Nations, where I focused on international economic development - an experience that shaped my lifelong commitment to building meaningful cross-border collaborations. Since then, I’ve worked with global corporations, scaling ventures, and founders to design strategies, partnerships, and ecosystems that unlock growth and deliver tangible outcomes.

I build networks that make the world feel smaller and opportunities greater. Whether it’s establishing advisory boards across Asia and Latin America for a global reinsurer, supporting founders to scale their ventures internationally, or advising leaders navigating complex geopolitical shifts, my work is grounded in clarity, practicality, and strategic ambition.

The world’s biggest opportunities rarely exist within one organisation, industry, or geography. They emerge when the right people come together - across countries, sectors, and perspectives - to solve important problems and seize new possibilities. My focus is on identifying these opportunities, building the right relationships and structures around them, and enabling leaders to act intelligently, collaboratively, and at pace.

I work with founders, executives, and innovation teams who want to think bigger, act smarter, and build networks that extend their reach and amplify their impact.
