I identified market opportunities, developed business plans and forecasts, and engaged in early marketing activities to raise brand awareness. Over time, with the support of my team, I expanded the company's portfolio from web security to compliance, cloud security, and other cybersecurity operations. I led all product development and implementation efforts, including financial estimates, milestone setting, and timeline management. In April 2018, we successfully launched the first version of our product, Securign, after working on it since December 2017. Some of the highlights of my entrepreneurial journey include the successful merger of Aristi with ISMAC Cybersecurity Inc. in June 2020. Additionally, Aristi was recognized with awards such as DCB Bank Innovation Carnival 2018 and CII YI Dream Startup 2019. We were also shortlisted for the Hello Tomorrow Global Startup Challenge 2020 in Paris, although the event was eventually cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
