I was a PhD researcher in the field of bioscience engineering from 2023 to 2024 before I transitioned to business economics. The reason behind my transition was my innate interest in the complex structure of our society’s social economic development. When I think about it, our society sustains through a complex web of organizations, driven by liberalization of global economy, logistical advancement, and IT development. Thus, I pursue my interest in business economics with the intent to understand the process.
My ideal career path would be with a profession that could help businesses grows and create wealth with IT solutions, while being considerate towards our impact on the planet. Through my research experience, I recognize the importance of understanding the background, objective, and methodology in creating a solution that fits accordingly with each case, yet simple. I always have the view that IT tools have the capability to improve processes, allowing us to increase efficiency. My internship experience at delaware BeLux in Antwerp, a big IT consulting company, allowed me to understand deeper the significance of tools. I persuade to equip myself with IT skills in productivity and to be open to the ever-evolving technology. Last but not least, I view sustainability (ESG principles) as opportunities (in and out), rather than hindrances.
I changed my name to “Adrian Bex” in 2024, and it is officially recorded in my passport. The name change on my Belgian register is in progress and is expected to be finalized in the third quarter of 2025. My former name is "Hayyu Mahabbah".
