The practice and its founder
Experience before advice.
Arnaud Compas is the founder and Managing Partner of Nexus Azeo. He has spent twenty-five years in wine, hospitality, retail and international business development—as a founder, chief executive, commercial leader and embedded market partner.
He founded Bedales at Borough Market and later built and led Vinothec Group; worked in Singapore; led European business development for Robert Parker Wine Advocate; and has worked with producers, distributors, hospitality businesses and platforms including Inama, Wine Traders, Visa Destination and Made to Taste.
Nexus Azeo was created to bring that operating experience into focused client work. Depending on the mandate, the practice acts as an adviser, an embedded UK market extension, a business-development lead or the coordinating partner between several organisations. The role is defined clearly, and the same senior attention remains in the work through delivery.
Market development
Led European business development for Robert Parker Wine Advocate and worked in Singapore, the UK and across European markets.
Wine & hospitality
Experience across producers, distributors, specialist retail, restaurants, hotels, chefs and destination hospitality platforms.
Current practice
Works directly with owners and management teams through advisory projects, embedded market roles and hands-on delivery mandates.
How the relationship works
Small, senior and directly involved.
Arnaud remains involved from the first conversation through the work itself. An engagement may be a defined project, an ongoing advisory relationship or an embedded market role. Scope, responsibility and the point of delivery are agreed at the start.
