Background

About Martin Stepanek

I work at the intersection of investment, economic development, and policy, helping governments and institutions unlock capital and design strategies that drive long-term growth. My career has spanned management consulting, private equity, and government advisory. I started out at Boston Consulting Group, where I developed a rigorous, analytical approach to solving complex strategic challenges. I then transitioned into private equity, gaining hands-on experience in evaluating investments, managing risk, and scaling value across Central and Eastern Europe. Today, I serve on the Investment & Trade team at the Tony Blair Institute, advising the Government of Indonesia. My work ranges from attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) to shaping public policy that enhances competitiveness and economic resilience. What drives me is the opportunity to align capital with meaningful outcomes—supporting projects and reforms that make economies more dynamic, inclusive, and future-ready. If you're working on challenges related to economic strategy, investment promotion, or policy transformation, I’d be glad to connect.
