Episode Title: 🇬🇧Integrating Cybersecurity Protocols in Telecommunications & Essential Collaborative Tactics for Threat Resilience🇩🇪
Today for the #HTCyberProtectSeries on Heads Talk we talk to Accxia and a seasoned CEO of some of the biggest telecommunications companies in the industry.
This episode is essential listening. My guests, with roots in tech since the early ‘90s, offer a grounded view of the industry. They cut through the noise and hype, revealing what’s really happening at the core of technology. While AI & quantum computing capture headlines, none of it exists without the foundational role of telecommunications, satellite infrastructure, and the critical cybersecurity measures surrounding them. We also explore the advanced world of security hackers—now an entire industry, complete with its own support systems. A must-listen for anyone in the field or with at least a tertiary interest in the subject area & the future of tech.
Volker Schulze, CEO of Accxia and an expert in mergers & acquisitions, brings nearly 30 years of strategic expertise to high-stakes deals, including a multi-billion-dollar acquisition in Germany and a significant oil merger in the Middle East. At Accxia, he leads advanced cybersecurity & cloud Initiatives trusted to protect clients' digital environments & most valuable assets, making him a respected figure in the cyber protection space.
His proficiency in MBOs, corporate finance, and turnaround management—evident from his successful management buy-out from a major telecommunications company, where he also served as CEO—positions him as a highly sought-after advisor in today’s complex digital security landscape.
René Schuster is a chairman, CEO and a visionary leader in global telecommunications and technology, celebrated for transforming Telefónica Deutschland through europe’s largest IPO, which raised €1.6 billion.
Under his leadership, the company grew from a €3 billion market cap to €14 billion , securing O2’s position as Germany’s top consumer brand. René’s impressive C-level roles include CEO of Adecco, European CEO of Compaq, COO of VimpelCom, & senior positions at Vodafone, HP, and IBM. His extensive private equity experience as a Partner at Vitruvian has solidified his reputation for guiding high-growth tech & FMCG ventures.
