About Ger Perdisatt
Ger Perdisatt
Founder, Acuity AI Advisory. Former Microsoft COO. Current NED at Dublin Airport Authority and Tailte Éireann.
I spent fifteen years at Microsoft, the last four as COO for Western Europe. I left to do it differently.
What independence actually means in practice — no vendor relationships, no commissions, no stake in which tools a client ends up choosing. We build and implement — but the recommendation is never bent toward something we profit from.

Background and current roles
Operating model
How we work
Senior-led, start to finish
Ger leads every engagement and stays accountable for it. The person who diagnoses your problem is the person answerable for solving it — not an account manager, not a junior handed the work once the contract is signed.
A team sized to the problem
Behind Ger, a small core team and a network of vetted specialist associates — engineers, governance and sector experts — brought in to fit the engagement. Real delivery capacity, without a junior pyramid billed by the hour or an offshore handoff.
Fixed-fee engagements
Scope and cost agreed before anything begins. No open-ended retainers, no hourly billing, no surprises. You know what you are getting and what it costs.
