K Naveed Bhatti
CEO
Naveed graduated with an MBA and decided to put his new skills & knowledge to immediate use.
As the CEO of GenSpec, he oversees the business planning and relationship building aspect of the business alongside the role of bringing GenSpec’s vision to the market.
As a self-professed utilitarian and minimalist, his passion for any workplace is to maximise efficiency, solve problems, reduce costs, and drive growth. Naveed has vast experience in Investment & Banking where he built himself as a team leader, working tirelessly to smooth out processes and building strong relationships intragroup to create synergy.
Having seen first-hand the competitive advantages utilised by larger corporations, even creating some himself, Naveed co-founded GenSpec with the vision to bring those techniques, technologies, and experience to small & medium businesses. Endorsed by ASPIRE, Kent Business School, EIRA, Santander & HICO Group among others, Naveed is already well established in the local business community and in a strong position to lead GenSpec to fulfil its vision.
