Lio Slama
CEO & Co-Founder
I am a serial entrepreneur and the founder of askneo.io, helping consumer brands personalize the entire customer lifecycle through texting and automation. AskNeo is part of the Techstars, JVP Hub and Columbia Startup Lab ecosystems.
Prior to founding askneo.io, I was the founder of SquarePlan, a proptech startup improving communication between tenants and landlords.
I was the Head Architect for the International Labor Organization in Switzerland, managing the design and engineering for their $300M renovation.
I was also an adjunct faculty at Columbia University in the Advanced Design Program (GSAPP).
I serve on the board of the French-American Chamber of Commerce in Los Angeles and I am a mentor at the Columbia Startup Lab in New York City.
I am involved in numerous civic organizations such as Aipac.
I hold a Master’s Degree from the Lyon School of Architecture in France, and a Master of Science in Advanced Design from Columbia University.
I traveled to 54 countries and I am passionate about urban exploration, especially in the Detroit area. I am an avid painter mostly interested in abstract minimalism, abstract expressionism and marbling.
