Dr. Victor Lawal

Built on
conviction,
not convention.

I'm a Product Leader based in Paris, operating at the crossroads of enterprise fintech, AI, and working capital innovation. For over six years I've built, scaled, and led high-performance product teams at Kyriba — one of the world's leading cloud treasury platforms — delivering solutions used by global enterprises to manage billions in liquidity.

I'm also an AI thought leader and researcher. My doctoral work examines how product managers adopt AI tools — what drives that adoption, what blocks it, and what it means for the future of software. I believe the most important questions in technology are rarely purely technical.
