Summary
Laurynas Riliskis is a founder-CEO and technology entrepreneur with 11 years of experience building AI and privacy-focused startups and a deep research background from a Stanford postdoc and a Ph.D. in Computer Networking. He has founded three startups (including VictorAi and Harmony.ai), led engineering teams to ship full-stack SaaS products on AWS, and earned an AWS Activate award and participation in the LexLabs accelerator. Equally comfortable in research and product, he invented IoT tooling and encryption prototypes at Stanford and published 40+ peer-reviewed articles while advising the EU on privacy and security. A hands-on leader who codes architecture decisions (React, Django, GraphQL, Terraform, AWS) and recruits advisory networks, he also brings uncommon civic impact—successfully lobbying Sweden to change PhD immigration law—and a competitive-athlete’s drive reflected in Strongman and boxing pursuits.
