About the founder
The founder, Dr Martin Puchert, brings experience as a co-founder of multiple consulting firms in Australia. His career in professional services began in the late 1990s as a Patent and Trade Mark Attorney.
He started StandOUT Edge after recognising a common issue: too many professional service firms miss the valuable opportunity to differentiate clearly.
With over two decades of experience in consulting, innovation, IP, and leadership, Martin brings a unique blend of insight, rigour, and practical business know-how. He combines practical, proven strategies with an engaging, enjoyable approach.
Please feel free to contact Martin. He enjoys connecting with like-minded founders and professionals to explore ways of increasing business value.
