ABOUT ME

Ever since graduating from Stanford University engineering school, Mohsen Moazami has been engaged in the technology industry for the past 30+ years.

Mr. Moazami was an entrepreneur as the founder/CEO of Stanford Business Systems (SBS) for 7.5 years before being acquired by KSA/Accenture, where he became a sr. partner and ran the global e-business practice. Later, he was recruited into the leadership of Cisco's strategic consulting services called Internet Business Solutions Group. There, he engaged at the CxO level of top global corporations and government entities assisting them in their journey to become connected, digital and agile enterprises.

During the last 4 years of his Cisco career, Mr. Moazami moved to London to join the leadership team of Emerging Markets looking after 132 countries with a $6 Billion P&L which during his tenure was the fastest growing part of Cisco. A key pillar of Cisco strategy in approaching these markets was 'country transformation'; presenting broadband as the 4th utility (after water, electricity and roads) necessary to drive competitiveness and standard of living.

Upon departure from Cisco in 2012 Mr. Moazami raised $300 Mil at CNTP to start a new venture capital investment firm in Silicon Valley.
