Team
Senake Atureliya, Managing Director

Senake conceived and developed the Pie Finance methodology. He set up his first company, MSA Engineering Systems Limited back in 1991 to commercialise a solids handling innovation. The business went on to design and build a wide range of production line machinery for the food and engineering sectors. Following the trade sale of that business, he set up Buzz Technology Limited in 1996 to assist with the implementation of enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions. To date the company has gone on to rollout systems all over Europe across a wide range of industries including manufacturing, distribution, investment banking, eCommerce and insurance. Needless to say, Pie Micro-Finance is his latest venture.

As a seasoned innovator, he is a passionate campaigner for patent reform to support innovators, small and medium sized businesses and recently represented their interests at the Gower review and the IBM hosted global wiki, the "Inventors Forum" from which selected ideas were put forward to the US Senate for patent reform. Senake has worked for Babcock International, GEC Avery and Riva 4DI (a former Department of Trade and Industry consultancy services provider).

Educated in the UK and Zambia, Senake holds a BSc Honours degree in Electrical Engineering from Southampton University.




Rupert van der Post, Tactical Advisor

A serial entrepreneur and innovator who has provided significant gap analysis and resolution during the development of the Pie Finance solution. Rupert has helped steer PIE around many seemingly insurmountable obstacles contributing significantly in reducing our time to market.

He has headed up the process R&D companies in the UK for the worlds largest food packaging company and was involved with a high profile corporate automotive fuel cell research whilst still at university. He currently runs a electric plant and infrastructure build company.

Rupert holds a BSc Honours degree in Electrical Engineering from Southampton University and an MBA from INSEAD.




Irina Misheneva, Operations Manager

With investment banking equity trading and market analysis experience, Irina is perfectly positioned to focus our resources to maximum effect. She has worked as an economist for the North Trade Bank and the Department of Economics and Labour (government) in St Petersburg, Russia.

Irina holds an Honours Degree in Trade and Commodities from the Trade and Economic University of St Petersburg.
Business model

Enables the funding of business turnaound and startup from underutilised resources.

 

Revenues from commission, subscription, consulting, white labelling and other sources.

Competitive advantage

Our key differentiator is that our solution allows the definition of a venture as a list of revenue linked resource requirements - effectively allowing 'retained ownership' of micro-invested resources and capital even when transformed into a batch of products or services.

The standard format, 'implementation plan' (as opposed to a non-standard business plan) form the basis for the day to day running of the company and allows our solution to carry out automated matching, reward sharing, fulfilment and most importantly tracking in a very cost efficient, automated manner.
