Oy SHH Academic Business Consulting Ab

Academic Business Consulting provide a unique opportunity to apply latest academic knowledge and to solve current business problems of the industries. Simultaneously, it also gives companies an incredible chance to meet the next generation of professionals, and utilize their services at reasonable prices.

I am a multilingual (5+ languages) business development and investment strategy professional with an international perspective. I hold MBAs from Finland and China and a Bachelor's in Finance from Germany. I've worked with family offices of various scales, supporting high-growth startups across sectors such as automotive, education, MedTech, and blockchain. 

I'm pleased to be serving as a Venture Partner at Verb Ventures. Throughout my career, I've assisted companies in raising over $5 million, guided investment strategies, acted as a crisis manager, worked on asset tokenization, and collaborated with Tier 1 firms. 

I'm also the host of "Very Venture China," a YouTube channel exploring business and cultural opportunities between China and Europe. Passionate about delivering value and learning, I thrive on solving problems where others see challenges, consistently driving results.

Warehouse logistics

My mission is simple: to make the high-end people analytics once reserved for large corporations accessible to ambitious startups, venture-backed organizations, and family companies. I focus on speed, practicality, and real-world constraints—not traditional "corporate HR".

I’m Raushan Irgaliyeva, founder of GrowthLens. With over 20 years of experience in people analytics and team management , I partner with founders of fast-growing Seed to Series A companies who are facing the painful "people chaos" that comes with scaling.

Your team's intuition is no longer enough. You're seeing hiring mistakes , communication breakdowns , and conflicts that slow down progress.

At GrowthLens, we operate as a management consulting group offering a productized consulting solution. This is a guided partnership built on validated assessment tools (like SHL ) and behavioral analytics. We provide actionable, practical recommendations to help you build a sustainable, data-backed system for the future.

Our goal is to help you:

✅ Hire with Confidence: Objectively assess candidates for cultural fit and potential, not just technical skills.
✅ Scale Your Leaders: Get clarity on the leadership potential within your team and avoid promoting people who fail.
✅ Align Your Founders: Create alignment between co-founders to prevent destructive conflicts.
✅ Build Investor Trust: Demonstrate to investors that you have structured, data-driven people processes ready for scale.

I help founders "see their growth through the lens of people" —transforming human-related risks into your greatest strategic advantage.

Let's connect to discuss how.
