For this Focus Edition, we have invited Bogdan Ivanel, CEO & Co-founder of Code for Romania, a remarkable NGO putting technology at work for social change, and René Schöb, KPMG’s partner in taxation services, and also technology and startups supporter. Bogdan and René discussed how to design, build and administer digital infrastructure in Romania, and how public and private entities should work together.

Bogdan Ivanel, CEO & Co-founder of Code for Romania
After over a decade spent in academia, directly observing and analysing social phenomena in the field of human rights and humanitarian law, with a strong focus on challenged communities, Bogdan co-founded Code for Romania in early 2016. The aim was to put technology at work for social change in Romania. Code for Romania rapidly grew from an idea into a movement. It is now one of the largest and most influential civic tech organisations in the world with almost 600 volunteers of various specialisations spread over 11 time zones and projects and methodologies with impact way further than Romania’s borders. In 2017, Bogdan took the first staff position within Code for All, leading the effort to ensure that the network is fulfilling its potential by ensuring a ripple effect of its members’ knowledge and products.
Bogdan has a PhD in International Law from Sciences Po Paris, obtained as a culmination of an impressive academic record including a BA & LLM from Utrecht University, an MSc from Oxford University, and a Visiting Scholar status with UC Berkeley.

René Schöb, Head of Tax & Legal at KPMG Romania
As Head of KPMG in Romania’s Tax & Legal Department, René coordinates the wide range of services the Department offers to clients from numerous sectors of the economy. René delivers coordinated services to help businesses and individuals negotiate the complex and frequently changing fiscal environment in Romania. His particular specialism is tax and legal issues affecting large and medium-sized privately owned international businesses. René joined KPMG in Romania in 2016 as Partner in Tax & Legal, after almost a decade at partner level in Romania, and he now leads a team of highly specialized consultants guiding business leaders in their tax compliance as well as advising on trends and opportunities.
René also leads KPMG Romania’s Startup Grow Pad Program in which KPMG helps Romanian startups in a tailored approach leveraging their venture’s growth across borders. He is passionate about technology, and has enthusiastically supported KPMG’s initiatives to design new technological tools to enhance services to clients and help them with their tax compliance and business development. He is also one of the mentors of the Startup Spotlight Program, adding value to the tech startup scene by enabling technology and change, as well as combining startup and corporate solutions to facilitate innovation.

The Video Premiere will happen on our Facebook page and YouTube channel on January 21, 17:00 EET.
