“Solman’s wealth of experience in building and scaling business operations for leading technology consulting and digital platform engineering companies serving the European life science and healthcare markets makes him uniquely positioned to lead Quantori’s expansion in this key region,” said Richard Golob, CEO, Quantori. “Europe continues to be a powerhouse of world-class life science and biopharma industry innovation. We look forward to working with Solman in developing strategic client relationships to help biopharma and life science companies deliver critical technology programs and data management imperatives to accelerate development of novel therapeutics."
As Quantori’s Executive Vice President for Europe, Solman will be responsible for developing key partnerships within the EU region’s ecosystem of pharma and healthcare companies, in addition to ensuring delivery of superior services and providing leading technology capabilities to Quantori’s clients. Solman joins Quantori from EPAM Systems where he led the Northern Europe business and where he previously worked with Quantori leadership, including Richard Golob, who led EPAM’s Global Life Sciences Business into the fastest growing unit at EPAM, in addition to Dr. Yuriy Gankin, Quantori’s Chief Scientific Officer, and Vitaliy Aronov, Quantori’s Chief Technology Officer.
“I am thrilled to be rejoining such a brilliant executive team at a very exciting time in Quantori’s growth and development, especially as the European biopharma industry is scaling the use of digital technologies to enable the provision of precision medicines and personalized healthcare,” said Solman. “A major challenge in working with IT outsourcing companies is that they have a limited understanding of the life sciences and healthcare industries. One of Quantori’s key differentiators is its extensive domain knowledge underpinned by true scientific depth. This unique combination enables us to add considerable value from the outset and speed-to-market horsepower to the critical focus of today’s biopharma companies – to accelerate the translation of their research and data insights into a pipeline of new medicines.”
Prior to leading EPAM’s Northern European business, Solman worked at Cognizant in several roles, including serving as Head of Strategic Engagements and Industry Practice leadership. Solman began his career as an analyst at Cowen Inc. in the Technology Investment Banking Group, undertaking equity research in the biopharma and high-tech sectors. He currently serves as a board advisor to Conversationly, a digital agency leveraging messaging, automation and AI technologies to promote conversational commerce. He holds MSc and BSc degrees in Economics & Management and Econometrics from the London School of Economics and Political Science.
“We are thrilled to welcome Solman onboard, and he will be instrumental in our efforts to expand operations in Europe to help biopharma leaders bring novel and life-saving therapies to market through the powerful partnership of digital IT and R&D informatics,” said Yuriy Gankin, PhD, Quantori’s Chief Scientific and Strategy Officer.

Unlocking Digital Gold’s US$700bn Opportunity19.10.2026 19:00:00 EEST | Press release
The digital gold market, worth US$45–55bn today, could unlock up to US$700bn in latent demand, according to new research from World Gold Council and Boston Consulting Group. The report points to substantial untapped appetite among retail investors, with nearly nine in ten surveyed saying they would consider digital gold under the right conditions. The US$700bn opportunity represents the report’s estimate of total latent demand that could be released if today’s barriers to adoption were removed, rather than a near-term forecast. The report’s five-year base case sees digital gold growing by around 27% a year to US$160–170bn by 2031. That could rise to US$270–280bn over the same time if more barriers fall faster. Momentum is already building as financial markets undergo a broader digital transformation, bringing tokenised investment products increasingly into the mainstream. Tokenised gold, one segment of the digital gold market alongside vaulted digital gold, has grown fivefold in value

TestGorilla Survey: Recruiters are Faster with AI, but Not More Confident They’re Finding the Right Candidates19.10.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
AI made finding candidates faster for 72% of US recruiters over the last 12 months, according to TestGorilla's Recruiting in 2026 report, a survey of 1,428 US talent professionals.

In fact, of the recruiters that claim AI has made them faster, a third reported no gain in confidence at all, and 18% say their confidence in the match actually fell.
