Event description

Hear from small business owner, Marian Hristov, about his entrepreneurial journey and how the Executive MBA helped with business development, growing his network, and ignited a passion for continual learning

Double the Hustle, Double the Success: Small Business Owner’s Journey with an EMBA Marian Hristov has consistently identified education as vital to his professional development. In the early stage of his academic journey, he made a decision to leave UNLV to embrace a career opportunity, even before completing his bachelor’s degree. After establishing himself as a businessman, he returned to his studies, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, complemented by a minor in Mathematics. As a key executive at Vegas Technologies, Marian spearheaded the company’s expansion in IT telecommunications, national cyber, and surveillance security while concurrently providing round-the-clock MSP services. Driven by his commitment to propel the company’s growth, he returned to his alma mater to pursue an Executive MBA. Reflecting on his professional journey, Marian notes, “My business acumen was primarily acquired through practical experience, often punctuated by trial and error. The EMBA program offered a comprehensive analysis of one’s leadership style and provided an unbiased assessment of one’s strengths and areas for improvement. This introspection was a significant step towards enhancing my personal and professional skills.” With a profound interest in areas such as organizational behavior, marketing strategy, leadership, and management, Hristov will apply the knowledge and skills he acquired to tap into the burgeoning opportunities within the surveillance sector of the tech industry. Furthermore, he garnered invaluable insights from his peers. Prior to completing his MBA at UNLV, he stated, “Engaging with a diverse group of executives will facilitate a broader understanding of their experiences. I aim to reciprocate by sharing insights from my personal and professional journey.”
