Ivan Kohut
Entrepreneur, Private Investor
Bio
Ivan is the co-founder of Perfectial, a Ukrainian software engineering company acquired by Avenga in 2021. Following the acquisition, he joined Avenga’s leadership team as CTO and became directly involved in the company’s subsequent buy-side deals, gaining hands-on experience in identifying targets and executing integrations. This unique path has allowed him to see M&A from both perspectives: as a founder preparing his own company for sale, and later as part of a global acquirer.
