Erik Wilde has a technical background, holding a Ph.D. in computer science from ETH Zürich. He spent most of his professional career in academia, working on computer communications and structured information in general, and in the space of Web architecture and engineering specifically. He left academia 2011 and since then has helped companies like EMC, Siemens, and CA Technologies to deliver their solutions through APIs. Erik's main focus these days is on the strategic and programmatic side of things: how to get from the general goal and vision of digital transformation to a functioning and productive API landscape.

As part of the Axway Catalyst team, Erik focuses on the following areas: Helping clients with formulating and reviewing API strategies; helping clients to formulate and execute API programs; API design and API product management; contributing to standardization activities in the API space.
