Devoteam Group appoints a strong leader who has consistently demonstrated his technological knowledge and experience in recent years.

Shaping the next chapter of Devoteam from the CTO position is an honour for me. Our organisation is deeply rooted in technology, and as new technologies like Generative AI emerge, it becomes increasingly crucial not only to master them but also to comprehend how to generate value from them. My driving force is to harness the potential of technology and collaborate with my colleagues across 18 countries in EMEA to deliver valuable solutions for our clients.
