In this episode of the Innovantage Podcast, Max Golikov sits down with Denis Leysen — Co-Founder at noah., AI adoption strategist, and former enterprise consultant with deep roots in family entrepreneurship. Together, they dive into what it really takes to implement AI in real-world organizations — especially when you're bootstrapping, not burning VC cash.

➡️ Learn from legacy: how Denis’s family consultancy journey shaped his leadership mindset

➡️ Embed a data culture across teams and lead sustainable transformation

 

Denis brings a grounded, practical lens to AI — not the hype, but the hands-on work of building, selling, and embedding innovation in companies that don’t have time (or budget) to waste. Whether you’re a founder, consultant, or digital leader inside a traditional business, this episode is full of real lessons from the frontlines.
