Olivier Cabanes

CEO at Planbox

I am currently CEO of Planbox - a powerful and simple web-based agile project management solution that is easy to adopt and implement. I'm also a co-founder of Bolidea, a privately-funded and thriving technology incubator. We invested in rising star companies such as Wajam, Planbox, Acadam, Artfox, Modasuite (Frank & Oak), Anomalous Networks (sold to Tangoe - TNGO:NASDAQ), Playerize and Viral Ninjas, as well as in seed-stage venture funds Montreal Start Up and Real Ventures. Prior, I co-founded CDT inc. a technology holding that operated an industry-leading web publishing and advertising platform as well as high-traffic search properties. It was eventually sold to 180 Solutions, which subsequently became the largest desktop advertising software company on the Web. The technology built by CDT and 180 Solutions remains and is now owned by a publicly traded company (BLNX:LON). Since the tender age of 6, when I ran a parent-backed lemonade stand, I have continuously looked at life through the entrepreneurial opportunities it offers. I am passionate about starting up, growing and scaling businesses.
