About

Hi, I’m Chris Shah. Over 12 years in software sales, I’ve held roles from SDR to Head of Sales, working as a solo founding sales rep and leading an international sales organisation representing over $20 million annually. Along the way, I’ve contributed to businesses that have been acquired by blue-chip companies and others that have achieved unicorn status. I help businesses win customers, grow existing accounts and enter new markets. I also help investors and cybersecurity companies make informed decisions about the offensive security industry.
