Nicolas Grebenkine

CEO of Aetsoft

Nicolas Grebenkine has built his career on timing. He moves in when markets are ready to expand, but before the crowd arrives. That sense of timing comes from both instinct and experience. Grebenkine began in investment management, making calls on which startups and technologies deserved capital. This experience later shaped his instincts as an entrepreneur. With Aetsoft he launched 10 products, many recognized by international startup accelerators.

Grebenkine entered blockchain in 2016, convinced that smart contracts would eventually reshape finance. During the DeFi years, he pushed Aetsoft to master low-level blockchain infrastructure. Now, with regulations finally in place, Aetsoft delivers enterprise-grade digital asset solutions. For other emerging tech, Grebenkine follows the same playbook: move early and master core technology to deliver complex enterprise solutions. In AI, that included private data centers, not just chatbot interfaces. In clean energy, it meant wind turbine systems. With Nikola, Aetsoft builds the technologies the world will run on tomorrow. His dual perspective, investor and entrepreneur, defines Aetsoft today.
