Alexander Astakhov Email and Phone Number
Experienced business development professional with 8 years experience, 5 of which focused on CIS region, last 3 years focusing in MENA. I am currently working at the intersection of EdTech, XR, GameDev and CG. Throughout my career I have focused on building strong business relationships, utilising my diverse cultural knowledge and cultivating a genuine passion for connecting with people. Over the years, I have experienced first-hand the power of building meaningful connections and establishing trust in business relationships through the professional execution of my own tasks and providing quality service from technology and project delivery at all stages. These invaluable relationships have not only contributed to the business growth of the organisations I have had the opportunity to work with, but have also played an important role in my personal and professional development. Living and working in Dubai, a vibrant and cosmopolitan centre, has enriched my understanding of different cultures and instilled in me a deep respect for diversity.I firmly believe that successful business development is not just about closing deals or achieving targets, but also about taking a genuine interest in a positive outcome for the 'people' behind the deals.
