Why Safronov Consulting
Operators, not advisors.
We are a senior consulting practice built around executives who have run engineering and product organisations at enterprise scale — from €2B platforms to AI-native ventures launched from zero.
Our clients call us when the stakes are real: a platform re-architecture that cannot stop the business, a product portfolio that has drifted, an AI agenda that needs to move from pilot to production. We bring decades of operating experience and stay accountable for the outcome.
