Ozgur Dogan, co-Founder and president of DSX, Blend360

With over 20 years of experience in the data, analytics and technology domains, I have had the privilege of witnessing the evolution of these fields from their early stages. I began my career in analytics before the term ’data science’ even existed. I led large analytics and data teams at Merkle before taking on the role of CMO at Hepsiburada, one of the EMEA region’s leading e-commerce companies, where I founded the data science capability.  

I was the first employee at Blend360’s data science solutions and helped the company achieve explosive growth in areas such as data science, data engineering and business intelligence. In just five years, we expanded from a team of one to a staff of 450.
