Visionary leadership building the future of enterprise technology.
Connor de Voil
I am the Founder of Paragraph, a multi-asset technology company building high-impact software products across security, pharma, AI, and enterprise innovation. With a background in elite private security—including work supporting members of the Dubai Royal Family and high-profile athletes—I moved from operational problem-solving into designing digital solutions that modernize outdated industries.
Today, I lead teams across software engineering, product development, and strategic partnerships. My focus is on developing technology that enhances efficiency, transparency, and trust in sectors long overdue for digital transformation.
What I’m passionate about
- Building fast-scaling SaaS and marketplace ecosystems
- Disrupting traditional industries with clean, elegant tech
- Leadership rooted in discipline, resilience, and vision
- Turning real-world operational gaps into commercial innovation
- Guiding high-performing teams through growth and execution
“I believe the world’s next generation of tech giants will come from founders who deeply understand the problems they solve.”
