Salim Sebkhi

Salim co-founded Aona AI to help enterprises cross from AI hype into real, compliant adoption. At Aona he runs revenue: go-to-market strategy, partnerships, and the customer conversations that turn pilots into long-term deployments. His thesis is simple. Enterprises will adopt AI either with governance baked in from day one, or they'll spend the next decade cleaning up breaches, fines, and reputational damage. Aona exists to make the first path the obvious one. Previously spent nearly a decade at Cisco, most recently as Head of Regional Marketing, Integrated Campaign for Asia Pacific, Japan & China, where he ran go-to-market programmes across Cybersecurity, Enterprise Networking, Hybrid Work, and Full-Stack Observability in 14 countries. Based in Paris.
