In 2011, Manuel set up Value Associates as a specialised advisory firm focusing on corporate finance, strategy and governance in 2011, with the goal to combine first class services with human values. And a greater flexibility to serve clients, free of conflicts as they frequently arise in a Big 4 environment. Since its inception, Value Associates has advised some of the most reputable Luxembourg entrepreneurs, corporations and institutions, including the Luxembourg government, as well as international family offices. Work is often carried out alongside lawyers, tax advisors, accounting firms, family offices and banks. Value Associates makes a point of providing pro-bono work to socially targeted initiatives and non-profit organisations. 

Manuel is a non-executive director in various companies, some having a Luxembourg focus, others acting globally. 

Manuel is a graduate from ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) and HEC Paris. He further earned certificates from the Amsterdam Institute of Finance, the London School of Economics and Political Science, MIT Sloan School of Management and INSEAD.
