Strategic Leader of the Year

Oleksandr Strozhemin is the Co-founder and CEO of Trinetix, a global technology partner that empowers Fortune 500 enterprises to accelerate innovation adoption, unlock new business value, and reshape entire industries through emerging technologies. As a strategic leader, he has steered Trinetix for more than a decade through every major wave of enterprise technology change, building the company from a single delivery hub into a multi-continental organization.

Strozhemin's leadership is defined by a consistent strategic approach: identifying market shifts ahead of consensus, committing organizational resources to capabilities before they become mainstream, and reframing client engagements into industry-defining outcomes. Under his direction, Trinetix has built deep centers of excellence around AR, RPA, and AI/GenAI in each case before the technology reached enterprise adoption, and has translated those bets into measurable industry impact: an AR-driven transformation of Eastern Europe's outdoor advertising market in partnership with Fortune 100 brands including ExxonMobil, Coca-Cola, Unilever, and Nestlé, and an AI-powered audit platform that has won the Digital Innovation of the Year award every year since 2018.

A Forbes Business Council member and recognized industry voice, Strozhemin has been named one of the Top 10 IT Entrepreneurs in Ukraine, awarded CEO of the Year 2023 in European Business and Finance, and named Best CEO in Digital Innovation Global 2025 by International Business Magazine. He also serves as a judge for the Globee, Stevie, and European Business and Finance Awards.
