Stan Shull
I formed Alliance Velocity to help companies develop strategies that accelerate revenue, extend core capabilities, access new markets, and achieve valuable exits.
I've initiated, negotiated, and managed dozens of winning alliances and created robust partner ecosystems for companies ranging from startups to large, global organizations.
My work has generated hundreds of millions of dollars of value for clients and employers and has been instrumental in driving successful turnarounds and lucrative exits by acquisition and IPO.
