Our story

Two senior contacts. Your extended arm across Europe & Asia.

We bring international hardware experience and established relationships to support your team. Sascha connects with you from Europe; Kam supports supplier communication on the ground in Asia. You lead your operation, and we help you access the people and information you need.

Why we started Eastbound Link

Experience and relationships you can build on.

In our previous leadership roles, we launched 20+ products into manufacturing, built supplier ecosystems across China, Malaysia and Vietnam, ran a company’s largest account, and scaled a business from roughly €1M to €2.75M in revenue. That experience shaped the network and perspective we now make available to customers.

We saw how difficult supplier decisions become when information is unclear and local contacts are missing. Eastbound Link helps close that gap through introductions, practical input and support on the ground. We work as your extended arm while your team retains control of its processes, commitments and risks.
