How did you come up with the idea for the company?

I’ve always been passionate about technology and its power to transform business operations. Before founding Erbis, I worked as a software engineer, which gave me a firsthand understanding of the challenges companies face when trying to build and scale technology solutions. I saw how inefficiencies, outdated processes, and rigid systems often hold businesses back.

At the same time, I’ve always been drawn to innovation—finding ways to do things better, faster, and smarter. The idea for Erbis came from a desire to bridge the gap between business needs and truly effective, future-proof software. I wanted to create a company where technology wasn’t just an add-on but a driving force behind business success. With Erbis, we’re not just writing code; we’re engineering solutions that help businesses scale, optimize costs, and stay ahead of the curve.

What is your advice to aspiring entrepreneurs?

Start with a clear vision, but keep your ears open. Building a business is like navigating uncharted waters. You have a compass that might help, but the tides will shift, and you must adapt. Focus on building a team that shares your passion. Listen to your customers. And never fear failure: every misstep is a lesson disguised as a challenge.

Our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction has been the driving force behind this evolution.
