Introduction

Success leaves clues.

Finance Strategists sat down with Shameer Thaha, CEO and Global Chief Strategy Officer of Accubits. He shared his thoughts on the past, present, and future of the company, as well as the insights he has gained from running the business.

Who is Shameer Thaha?

Q: Who are you and what’s your background?

I'm the Global Chief Strategy Officer and CEO (EMEA) at Accubits. I am a 3x founder with 2 exits and have been building products and services businesses for nearly 2 decades. My background is in computer engineering and business administration.

Q: Who has been your biggest influence, and why did they have such a significant effect on you?

My biggest influence would have to be my dad as I grew up seeing him lead teams and pursue any initiative driven by core values. This has had a significant impact on me as it taught me to never falter on my value system in pursuit of my goals.

Q:Knowing what you know now, what advice would you have given your younger self?

Take a step back and pursue long-term goals as we always tend to underestimate what we can achieve in the short term.

Business

Q: What is Accubits?

Accubits is a venture studio for web 3 networks helping drive transformation for enterprises and governments.

Q: What separates Accubits from its competitors?

Our passion for problem-solving driven by a culture of innovation and product engineering helps us hand hold our customers from idea to market and impart value at every step as a technology partner rather than a vendor relationship.

Q: What led you to start Accubits?

The founding team started Accubits with a grand vision to leverage Accubits as a platform to liberate at least seven billion creative minds and in the process help humanity evolve.

Q: What has the experience of building the business taught you?

Every stage of growth is interesting as it brings about new sets of challenges and opportunities. One key learning for me personally has been to trust your people to do their job and empower them to be able to scale your business.

Q: Where do you see things headed for you and the company in the next five years?

We are working on some cutting-edge technology solutions for blockchain, AI, and biotechnology. The next five years are going to be our pursuit towards unraveling some of the results of our research in these areas and potentially going public with the company.
