About this episode
In this episode of The Digital Executive , host Brian Thomas sits down with Volodymyr Panchenko, visionary founder behind Suntechsoft, Skins.cash, DMarket, and now Portal.ai, to explore how trust, communication, and emotional intelligence shape every relationship—personal and professional. From pioneering digital asset marketplaces to building an AI engine that strengthens human connection, Panchenko shares his journey, his philosophy, and the life experiences that inspired Portal AI’s mission: helping people truly understand one another before the first conversation. He opens up about the emotional toll of fundraising, the breakthroughs that came from improving communication clarity, and how early users are experiencing deeper, more meaningful interactions. Panchenko also discusses the future of AI in human relationships—arguing that, like electricity, AI’s impact depends entirely on how we choose to use it. This episode is a compelling look at how technology can solve one of humanity’s oldest problems: miscommunication. If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - Apple or Spotify .
