With over 15 years of experience in automation across various industries and leadership roles in international IT companies, I have a strong background in technology, strategy, and innovation. I previously led the financial and public sector at SAP, bringing deep expertise in enterprise solutions. My academic foundation is in mathematics, complemented by an MBA in entrepreneurship.
My passion for Open Data began more than 20 years ago and has driven my work ever since. In 2015, my partners and I co-founded Social Links, initially as a hobby. By 2018, we had unlocked rapid growth, positioning ourselves as global leaders in OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) in both 2023 and 2025, as recognized by Frost & Sullivan — now serving over 500 clients in more than 80 countries.
Today, we are expanding the impact of our technology into new domains such as cybersecurity, finance, digital risk protection, and sales & marketing. At the beginning of 2025, I launched a new initiative — DarksideAI — after realizing that criminals are using AI far more effectively than governments and corporations. With over 10 years of experience combating crime, we are uniquely positioned to create solutions that protect against today’s digital risks.
