Artur Tavakalyan
Founder
“For more than twelve years I have worked in strategy, finance, investment, business change management and product development. Now I am bringing all of it together with AI to build the product I believe in: one that takes corporate governance into the future. I know how much better a company can be run, and I will not stop until it is.”
Artur builds CEODash, the executive layer for small and mid-sized companies. He has spent twelve years in Big 4 audit and deal advisory, top-tier banks and fintech, and now works on strategy and transformation inside an international group of about 5,000 people and four business directions.
He has built a new business line from zero twice: a transactional-banking MVP in four months, and an SME banking segment that reached RUB 25B in eight months. CEODash comes from a pattern he kept meeting in that work: the numbers exist, and the decision still has no owner.
