Think Tank - 2024 Feb 27 CISO TT London
Ky is the CEO of Cutover, he started out in the Space Industry with a physics background, he spent some time working with NASA and more with the European Space Agency on the International Space Station Program. He loved the seamless way teams and technology come together in the Space Industry to do great things! He left that industry to work as a tech consultant in the enterprise, working with the founding team for many years. Following frustrations they saw in managing tech ops/IT operations/SRE in the enterprise, they had a vision for a framework for teams and automation to work together to harness volatile and complex processes to reduce risk, increase productivity and reduce costs - they call this Collaborative Automation. On that basis they founded Cutover which has grown tremendously since its inception in 2015 and is now adopted at many of the world’s largest financial institutions and technology companies.
