What we do
Hands On Operating Team​
​
We work with CEOs, founders, and investors at the moment where growth, succession, or exit requires the business to become institutionally sound.
We work as a Leadership Pod, a small, senior operating team that installs structure, governance, and continuity, and then steps back once the business is scalable-ready.
We are a
people focused company
with a belief in
personal interactions,
open shared opinions
and meaningful relationships.
When clients call us
​We’re usually engaged when:​
- A business is scaling faster than its operating model
- A founder wants to step back without breaking the business
- A PE or VC fund needs a portfolio company hardened before exit
- Regulatory, data, or AI-related risk starts to surface
How we work
​We operate through a Bridge Leadership Pod, a small, senior operating team that steps in to stabilize the business and install structure.
​​
​
What makes us different
- Execution over slides
We don’t deliver frameworks. We deliver operating change.
- Senior-only model
No junior teams, no handoffs, no learning on your time.
- Time-bound engagements
We are brought in to fix specific risks, not to linger.
- Board-safe and founder-safe
Our work reduces pressure — it doesn’t create political noise.
​
Legal compliancy partners
​Where legal structuring or regulatory cleanup is required, we work in direct coordination with our preferred legal partners, including Dentons and DLA Piper.​
Clients and partners

Typical engagement structure
Diagnostic audit
A short, fixed-scope assessment to surface operational, governance, and dependency risk.
Execution phase
A steady-based engagement where the Bridge Leadership Pod installs structure and removes risk.
Optional value alignment
In succession or exit situations, success or milestone-based components may be added once alignment is clear.
Model
We don’t work success-only, and we don’t operate without commitment.

Zucker Cube™

We are very passionate about organizing work and have developed our own operating system based on a cube concept.
The power of the Zucker Cube is that it guarantees no critical dimension is overlooked. It gives us a holistic, six-dimensional view, with an agile adaptive selection of the parts we wish to focus on.
The AI driven application accelerates the preparation of action plans, and keeps it consistent across functions.

2010
Our timeline
Ediyal was officially founded by Eyal Zucker with a primary mission: to deliver commercial results through digital tools and environmental strategy. Our initial service focused on developing a proprietary digital solution that enabled mid-sized businesses to effectively measure, track, and significantly reduce their carbon footprint, directly correlating environmental strategy with substantial cost reductions.
2012
The firm secured its first major international engagement, partnering with HP Inc. to drive a complex, multi-national digital product development program across 14 countries. This phase established our expertise in managing large-scale, cross-cultural, and technology-driven change within global corporate structures.
2019
We strategically pivoted to leverage our expertise in rapid growth and digital alignment, focusing on advising high-potential scaleup companies. Our work centered on digital product driven strategy development, product definition, and market penetration for ambitious tech firms in both Hungary and the Benelux region, solidifying our reputation as growth architects.
2021
Recognizing the need for hands-on operational leadership, we aligned our consultancy to support Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) funds. Our senior partners began stepping into critical roles as Interim CEOs, CPOs (Chief Product Officers), and COOs (Chief Operating Officers) within portfolio companies, ensuring rapid value creation, performance optimization, and successful exit readiness.
2025
Ediyal continues to operate at the for-front of value transactions including mission-critical industries.
Our current advisory also includes Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) & Joint Ventures, structuring complex market entry and collaborative ventures. High-Stakes Procurement, advising on commercial strategy and negotiation for governmental procurement, with significant focus in specialized sectors such as Defense and Space.

We Love to Organize Things
We usually begin with a short diagnostic conversation to determine whether there is a real fit.
If there is, we define a narrow first step. If there isn’t, we say so early.
