Top SchoolSangwon Cho is a results-driven solution sales and technical leader with over 15 years of experience in APIM, security, and DevSecOps across Korea’s largest enterprises. He has repeatedly grown revenue and teams—helping CRAVIS scale to over $6M in sales and driving APILUX and KONG APIM adoption at major clients such as Samsung, Shinhan, KB, and Hyundai. As a former CA Technologies senior account director and CTO at U&Ours, he blends deep hands-on technical skills (UNIX/Linux, Java, storage, IAM) with persuasive sales and pre-sales leadership to win complex cross-BU deals. He also led product development and R&D for APILUX, turning technical IP into commercialized solutions and trademark filings. Based in Seoul, Sangwon pairs a master’s in information security with a developer background, making him equally comfortable building integrations, running PoCs, and shaping go-to-market strategy. An uncommon strength is his track record of sustaining customer bases through major reorganizations and M&A, preserving revenue while launching new platform offerings.
