Ivan Bagaliyski, director of go-to-market strategy at Solifi, received the highly commended mention in the Rising Star category at the Asset Finance Connect Summer Awards 2023.
The Rising Star award celebrates an individual who has demonstrated their true passion for the auto and asset finance sectors and made an invaluable contribution through their ability and drive to excel and innovate in the asset finance industry. Bagaliyski was one of 15 finalists and was nominated because of his relentless commitment to leading the charge in enabling the asset finance industry to operationalize ESG into day-to-day leasing workflows.
Bagaliyski first joined Solifi in May 2022. Since then, Solifi’s asset finance activity in Europe has tripled in comparison to the same period from 2022. Bagaliyski has also delivered an initial ESG industry evaluation with the objective of progressing toward a comprehensive ESG value proposition for the asset finance industry. He also was a guest speaker at the Sustainable Finance Summit in Paris.
“Ivan has made a remarkable impact and contribution to our strategy in the time he has been with Solifi,” David Hamilton, CEO at Solifi, said. “His commitment to Solifi and the asset finance industry has already proven to be valuable, and this recognition is testament to Ivan’s capabilities, which have clearly been noticed within the industry.”
The AFC Summer Awards are judged by an independent panel of industry experts and acknowledge people and organizations who have committed to making change in the asset finance industry.
