United States

Bio Summary

I’m a USA based entrepreneur, strategist, and ecosystem builder with a lifelong passion for turning innovation into impact. Throughout my career, I’ve founded and led ventures that connect ideas, people, and capital — transforming emerging technologies into sustainable businesses that improve lives.

Dr. Anjo De Heus, DBA is the founder of 360Disruption, an execution platform focused on services-led foreign direct investment, health innovation, and industrial acceleration in the UAE and GCC.

He designs and operates cross-border commercialization pipelines that connect international companies with structured market entry, localization, and scale-up pathways, aligning with national frameworks such as ICV and industrial development strategies.

Through strategic corridors spanning the United States and Southeast Europe — including collaboration with the REDI Balkan Impact Network — he facilitates a continuous flow of validated, market-ready technologies into the region, particularly across diagnostics, AI, digital health, and preventive care.

His approach transforms FDI from isolated transactions into repeatable, execution-driven pipelines, enabling faster economic impact, lower risk, and scalable ecosystem development.

Dr. De Heus brings extensive experience in venture building, international partnerships, and go-to-market execution, and is focused on positioning the UAE as a global hub for innovation localization and regional expansion.
