Dr. Intrator is a sought-after global executive with extensive expertise in financial services, HighTech, Telco, Software as a Service (SaaS), cloud technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML). He is known for developing and managing new products and services while architecting global enterprise-wide pioneering strategies that create and drive business value. While currently a board member of technology startups and a former board member of the Wall Street Technology Association (WSTA), he is also the co-founder of Ri$KQ and has operated at a C-level as President and Board Member of JPMorgan Israel Technology Center. Other financial services firms benefiting from his expertise include Deutsche Bank, XL Capital, and Bank Hapoalim. Dr. Intrator also spent many years developing new and disruptive technologies at Microsoft Corporation.

Intrator commented: “In my career, I have seen a significant number of proprietary hardware solutions that were eventually replaced by software. Over time the proprietary nature of such solutions represents inefficiencies and incremental costs to the business. Today, I view many dedicated hardware devices as an anachronism that eventually will be replaced by software. Lightbits Labs, with its partnership with Intel and VMWare®, demonstrates how costly proprietary hardware and software storage management solutions can be completely decoupled and fully managed by software running on commodity hardware. Lightbits is ideal for businesses that adopt the digital-first strategy and seek to accelerate the digital transformation of their data centers. I look forward to working closely with its leadership team to unlock more technology value.”
