Mentorship, lectures and 
workshops

I would like to say 'Hi' and welcome you to my Marketing & Brand Consultancy page

Supporting the startup ecosystem

I feel privileged to be a mentor at Dubai Smart City Accelerator (DSCA) and Dubai technology entrepreneur campus (Dtec) and honoured to help such passionate and energetic startup entrepreneurs.

After working at agencies and corporates for 19+ years, I launched my own company to be able to do the things I care about the most; which is helping entrepreneurs move their company forward through building brand preference and competitive advantage.

​

Seeing a sparkle in the eyes of an entrepreneur during a one-on-one session, bringing a smile to one's face when presenting a brand strategy, making sure all pieces of the puzzle fit. That is what drives me and that is why I am happy to support the startup ecosystem in the UAE by being a mentor and by providing lectures and workshops.

Power of branding

A word from Sami Elayan,
Founder at Finer Diner & former mentee at DSCA-Startupbootcamp

"In our first meeting, I was completely bewildered about what I needed to do and how I needed to do it. Sylvia never enforced her opinion but rather asked the right questions. She is good at leading you towards the answers and sharpens your focus on things that are important in the future. She listens and analyzes what you say and looks for the objectives you are trying to achieve and guides you on how to achieve them.

 

After our session, I felt confident in the path that we want to take and how we are going to move forward with our identity and what message we want to portray."
