About Me
Hello! I'm Agron.

Chief Information Officer (CIO) | Co-Founder
Strategy • AI • Data • Tech • Security
Basel, Switzerland.


I firmly believe in the transformative power of collaboration, empowerment, and collective achievement. With 20+ years in the tech space, I've worked in engineering, security, and data before stepping into roles as a co-founder and CIO, consistently valuing strategic collaboration over individual brilliance. My leadership approach interweaves authenticity, adaptability, and innovation that guide my professional endeavors, whether that's crafting a visionary data strategy, fostering a thriving engineering team, or introducing pioneering, data-centric systems. My hands-on experience has honed my expertise in areas like data-driven innovation, AI, infrastructure, and information security. In my current role as CIO, my aim is clear: utilize technology as a tool to synchronize with business goals, shield invaluable data, and introduce cutting-edge solutions that accentuate efficiency, security, and growth. Outside the realm of bits and bytes, my roles as a father, husband, and son deeply influence my worldview. My love for science finds its way into my personal readings. Nothing compares to the joy of sharing knowledge with my daughter. In envisioning a future for her, I see a world interconnected and powered by data, brimming with opportunities for the next generation. Having had the privilege to work for a plethora of international companies, and to study at globally prestigious institutions, I carry a global perspective and a multi-faceted skillset. Moreover, my passion for continuous learning keeps me on-guard. When I'm not engaged at work, I indulge in my interests of travelling, cooking, and physics.
