In 2018 I had the honour to sit down with Horia Velicu, head of the Innovation LAB at BRD in Bucharest.
Horia has a diverse background, always mixing computer science and finance and later in his career this job appeared and he decided to take the challenge further.
BRD is part of the Société General Group which is a French bank that is present in over 65 countries with over 32 million customers.

In 2018 I joined E-commerce Immersion. There I had the unique opportunity to interview Bogdan Colceriu, a serial entrepreneur who founded FRISBO.
Frisbo helps Fulfillers to become more efficient by enabling orders to be fulfilled from multiple fulfilment centres spread across the country.
That is quite a disruptive model since several merchants would send their orders to a fixed location.
