Hi! I'm Kirill. Let's chat!
My lifelong passion has been to make a positive impact on others, driven by my curiosity in applying interdisciplinary knowledge in real-life scenarios.
Consequently, I found the tech industry to be the ideal place to create innovative and in-demand products that benefit people.
I work as a consultant, helping corporations collaborate with startups and digitally grow their businesses. Moreover, I conduct venture market research and develop market entry strategies, such as an overview of the LATAM venture ecosystem, or research on FinTech in the Balkans.
Additionally, I am always open to engaging in various projects, whether as a product manager or as an analyst.
