Robert Azzopardi appointed CTO at Smart Technologies

Lija-based Smart Technologies Limited has just appointed long-standing employee Robert Azzopardi as its first-ever Chief Technology Officer (CTO).

Founded in 2008, Smart Technologies is a professional operator in the local computer leasing business, assisting companies and start-ups to invest in building their IT platform or interface at a minimum cost and consequently, managing it for them.

“[Mr Azzopardi] was a natural choice for this post. During the last four years at STL he has strongly contributed to the company’s growth and has become a leader in the local IT industry thanks to his knowledge, professional experience, and managerial qualities,” company CEO Joe Aquilina said.

Mr Azzopardi’s new role will centre on the development, implementation, and the evaluation of Smart Technologies’ technology resources across all business units. He will also be identifying the company’s requirements and make the necessary investments to ensure that Smart Technologies reaches its goals.

Mr Azzopardi joined the company as Systems Architect back in September 2018. Said position has now been filled by Alen Robovic – an ICT industry veteran, with over 25 years of experience.
