Kushtrim Xhakli is an internet specialist and in many aspects a brilliant generalist. In terms of information technology he understands and often even manages every aspect of a project, from initial brainstorming to implementation without loosing attention to detail.
He understands the concepts very well both from a business point and technical point of view. Beyond this, Kushtrim’s major skill lies in his ability to analyze businesses and industries.In June 2007, with Ipko Institute, he launched a free e-learning education portal trajnimi.com providing free access to ICT education in Kosovo. The objective was to break the existing paradigm and offer Kosovo citizens a unique opportunity to develop their ICT skills.
The concepts of marketing, user-focus and new business blends together in every single new internet and new media related project and to win you need to know how they work together. Kushtrim does this in every aspect and has a great eye for why some projects succeed or fail.
Kushtrim Xhakli was recently elected as a member on Steering Committee of the Business Startup Center of Prishtina University.
