Guy Wollaert

Currently advising on innovation strategy with large, established corporations, as well as giving back what I learned through mentoring and advising start-ups. Balancing returning, with continued learning.

In mid-2015, I ended a 23 year career with the Coca-Cola Company as Senior Vice President and Chief Technical and Innovation Officer, where, since 2011, I have led the strategic direction and integration of following corporate functions: Global Procurement, Technical Operations, Scientific & Regulatory Affairs, Global Governance for Quality, Safety and Environment, Global Research & Development, Coca-Cola Freestyle and Innovation & Entrepreneurship. Altogether, this work is critical to ensuring the quality, safety and great taste of every Coca-Cola product sold in 207 countries around the world every day.

I also served as the chief architect of Innovation for Coca-Cola, building on the Company’s strong history to design new approaches, work models and mindsets to accelerate new value across the organization.

Architect by training and early career, was key to bring a holistic thinking approach in every role.
