Founder, coder, coach, CEO, author, meditator.
I believe AI-first startups will dominate the world. If you'd like to build AI-first products together, let me know.
I'm a founder and ex-CEO at Makers, a leading tech training provider in the UK.
I'm proud that Google, Apple, Microsoft, Deloitte, Accenture, HM government and over 300+ other companies are our clients.
I coach CEOs. I work 1:1 with founders navigating CEO transition and other startup challenges.
“Evgeny has improved me as a leader and as a person.” — Øyvind Reed, CEO Whereby.
I wrote Startup CEO Succession: a Founder's Guide to Leadership Transition.
“Evgeny Shadchnev has created the best guide to this difficult process I’ve ever read“ — Jerry Colonna.
I was a tech co-founder at InvisibleHand.
It was the world's biggest price comparison browser extension with millions of users and patented technology behind it.
I write a substack: Unconditionally Human.
On Startup CEO Succession podcast, I interview CEOs who stepped down, CEOs who took over and investors involved in the process.
I hold MSc Advanced Computing from Imperial College London.
My thesis was on Information Retrieval. PhD drop-out.
