— ABOUT

Strategy, execution, and relentless impact

I'm Jonathan Abon — an execution-focused technology leader and Fractional CPTO/CPO with over two decades building and scaling B2B/B2C digital products, network solutions, cloud platforms, and ML/AI applications.

I help B2B hardware and XaaS product companies or business units fix underperforming product portfolios, unclear financial trade-offs, and disconnected product roadmaps so they can improve revenue, margins, and cashflow while confidently scaling in ML/AI-driven offerings.

My deep expertise in hardware-based and XaaS-based financial metrics, unit economics, and consumption-based business models, combined with a proven methodology for scaling product-based businesses coupled with my technical background in ML/AI, enables me to provide strategic and operational guidance that drive measurable results.
