I worked with Elias for about one and a half years at DPO Group. Elias has extensive knowledge in the payments field and above this, he is also a top salesperson. His selling skills combined with his business acumen in online payment solutions makes him a unique and valuable asset to have on your team. Elias’ other attributes include but are not limited to leadership skills, business development, presentation skills, excellent negotiation skills, and in addition, he’s great at communication and gets along with colleagues. I learned a lot from him and would work with him again any time.
