Igor Zakhlebin
Builder, computer scientist, founder of Huurrek
I am currently working on Huurrek, a startup providing sustainable cloud services based in the Netherlands 🇳🇱.
My previous experience includes quantitative finance, where I developed and utilized data-intensive systems. Before transitioning to the industry, I had been working on a Ph.D. degree at Northwestern University in computer science and communication, where I studied collective human behavior through analysis of diverse large datasets using custom-built computational tools.
Mar ’24: Our startup is now publicly launched. 🎉
Sept ’21: Our paper on social aspects of online dissemination of research is published in Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
