You Already Think Like a CEO.

Let's Build the Business to Prove It.

Your PM skills — scope management, risk planning, stakeholder alignment, process design — aren't just corporate tools. They're the exact foundation successful entrepreneurs build on.


You just haven't had a reason to apply them outside a job description. Until now.

If you were in the room today, you already know this:

The skills you've spent years developing don't belong to any one employer, industry, or org chart. They belong to you.


The question isn't whether you could run a business. It's what that business looks like — and whether the timing is right to find out.


That's exactly what we figure out together.

Martine Dardignac, founder of The Vendor Lab, PMP-certified project manager and entrepreneur

Hi, I'm Martine.

PMP-certified project manager, NYU grad, and former ad ops leader with nearly two decades of experience including time at Microsoft. I also run three businesses — a multicultural wedding planning firm, a Caribbean catering brand, and The Vendor Lab, where I help creative entrepreneurs build the operational backbone their businesses need to grow.


I built everything you saw today from the same toolkit you already have. I just pointed it somewhere different.
