Živko Gvozdenović

Živko is the CEO and co-founder of Kinta. A UI/UX designer for over a decade, he's the person in the room who turns a messy meeting into a clear direction and gives everyone else the platform to bring their best ideas. He brings vision, product instinct, and strong opinions about how things should look and feel. Before Kinta, he bootstrapped three startups from Serbia that all failed, burning through over 100,000 euros in the process. Expensive lessons, but the connections and scars were worth it. He and his wife eventually left Serbia for Slovenia on a Digital Nomad Visa, looking for a better environment to build in.

The idea for Kinta started with a simple moment: scanning a QR code on a receipt in Serbia and watching all the data appear automatically. That sparked weeks of obsession about what personal finance could actually feel like. He's an impulse buyer who openly admits he needs Kinta as much as anyone. When he's not working (which is rare, and he'll tell you that's the point), he's opening and closing the automated tailgate on a Volkswagen Phaeton 50 times a day, studying the hinge mechanism like it's modern art.
