Summary
Una Softic is a strategic technology executive who turns advanced research into scalable businesses across energy, AI, fintech, and mobility. As Managing Director and CSO of Intertangible and a longtime advisor to startups and enterprises, she has taken emerging-tech ventures from zero to funding, acquisition and IPO. Her background spans nearly two decades including semiconductor BD at Intel and AI/fintech innovation leadership at Nikkei, grounded in computational linguistics that lets her operate fluently in labs and boardrooms. She combines product-led GTM experience with hands-on R&D oversight, having held VP and C-level roles as well as multiple advisory mandates across robotics, energy, and digital finance. Based in Tokyo, she pairs a European academic foundation with executive training from Waseda Business School and a practical track record in global markets. A less obvious strength: she bridges cultural and technical divides to accelerate commercialization in deeply regulated industries.
