Hello I'm Quang, CEO at Plato. I come from an Engineering Background, graduate from French Engineering Schools Supaero and Polytechnique. I built this company because I found it extremely hard to transition from an engineer who is coding to a manager who is responsible of people who are coding.

Quang is not available in the next 4 weeks.
