CEO & Founder at EntityCheck
levon.ec@entitycheck.comI'm a serial entrepreneur responsible for founding numerous successful information technology brands, generating over half a billion in sales. My inspiration was founded on a very simple idea. I believe that accessing data should be easy. Our services solve many core issues around accessing vital data for business intelligence and giving consumers the tools they need to manage their personal information and privacy.
One of my main projects, EntityCheck, is a platform that gives fast access to detailed business information. It allows users to search over 35 million companies and find important data such as business registrations, trademarks, court cases, UCC filings, and ownership details. EntityCheck helps businesses, investors, and researchers make better decisions by providing clear and reliable information about companies.
