I was honored to meet Marian while building a Digital Transformation Guild in Bratislava. Marian and a few colleagues of his created together a volunteering group of technology enthusiasts (BIBA) with the objective to raise awareness and support teams & organizations in their digital transformation journey. Since we started working together, Marian took over the leadership role for Business Intelligence (one of the 5 pillars of BIBA), building up a core team of 4 volunteers, working together for 18+months growing a community of 340+ members with many offline and online sessions on BI (top session with 800+ participants) BIBA (Bratislava Innovation & Business Automation) has recently expanded to other sites in EMEA, partnering with local groups or similar guilds to continue in its mission to help teams & organization transform in the digital (r)evolution. Marian is a true passionate digital transformation leader, with great program management skills, technical skills, always open and transparent, willing to share with others and a never ending zeal for discovering new technologies, most recently exploring blockchain.

One could hardly find such a hardworking, proactive and self-motivated person as Marian. Having an opportunity to work with him on several projects as well as watch him grow in his skills and career makes one to continuously try to improve, innovate and progress. Marian has many times proved himself to be a step ahead technology and tools we used as well as an innovative thinker, following global trends. To improve is his passion and following new technology trends is inhabited deeply in his DNA. Considering his IT skills, surprisingly, he is an amazing speaker, motivator and leader, too.
