Uriel is a product executive and entrepreneur with more than two decades of experience building and scaling enterprise software, AI-driven platforms and digital products. He brings extensive experience across maritime trade, logistics, shipping documentation and complex enterprise workflows.

Commenting on his appointment, Uriel said:

“Vanguard Tech operates in a space where technology can make a real difference. Maritime risk and security are complex, fast-moving areas, and I see significant potential to help mariners operate with greater confidence and support vessels in reaching their destinations safely.

The combination of maritime intelligence, risk assessment, satellite networks and operational support creates both complex challenges and exciting opportunities. I am particularly focused on how AI can improve risk evaluation, identify emerging threats and support more effective risk-mitigation decisions.

Vanguard Tech has strong potential to lead this transformation, and I am excited to join such a professional, knowledgeable and welcoming team.”
