More about SandraMost innovation work produces decks. We produce results validated by real customers, measured by what actually happened in the market.*
* Results may vary. We set up the field — you still have to play the game.
Startups build products nobody wants because they skip validation. Corporations run innovation programs that look impressive and change nothing. Accelerators score the application, not the whole business — and with AI anyone can write a great application.
We've each spent 15+ years on every side of that — as validation and go-to-market consultants, program designers, accelerator mentors and ecosystem builders. We know where the real work happens, and it's rarely in the deck.

More about BojanMy acquaintance with Sandra grew into a quality professional collaboration and friendship that has lasted almost ten years. Her professionalism, creativity and willingness to step outside conventional frameworks defined our initial collaboration during my time at IBM and our joint work with ICT Hub. All of this made Sandra our first and only choice as mentor for our startup in the Smart Start program of the Innovation Fund.
Nataša SekulićCo-founder · formerly IBM and ICT Hub Program ManagerGriT2022Luka played a significant role in MyTurn's development from the very beginning. Through mentorship, he helped us improve our business model and focus on what mattered most — building an app users actually want to use. Together we developed customer interviews, tested and validated key hypotheses, and his advice helped us build a product that is now used in over 80 countries worldwide.
Ivana GazivodaCo-founderMyTurnBojan is one of the few consultants I trust in front of a client we cannot afford to lose. Mostly because he knows how to position himself, and us, as partners and not vendors who came to do a job. When I hand him a client I don't think about it again. No supervision, no reminders, no managing. He also finds the opportunities for further engagement himself. For a company that lives on partnerships, that matters.
Nenad BožićCo-founder & CEOSmartCatWorking with Sandra was an invaluable experience that significantly contributed to our personal development and the growth of the project we were building together. Her broad experience, expertise and ability to identify real opportunities pushed us to expand our horizons and step outside the boundaries of our core business. Sandra inspired us to take bold, innovative moves — which is a unique value in any strategic growth journey.
Ana Boroš TodićSenior Corporate Communications ExpertA1 Serbia · Via NormaleAt NTP Niš we've worked with Luka across multiple programs for startups and informal teams. He's truly unmatched when it comes to Customer Discovery, combining methodology, experience and hands-on work with teams in a way that's hard to find. Luka is one of those experts we're always glad to bring back into our programs, and even happier to recommend further.
Aleksandra RistićBusiness Development AdvisorScience and Technology Park NišIn just three months Bojan rebuilt how we sell Whisperly. He made us look at our own product the way our customers do, and that changed everything else: pricing, how we approach people, how we talk to them. The biggest difference is that we are not guessing anymore. We have a plan, we stick to it, and we know how to adjust it when something isn't working.
