FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Copenhagen, Denmark - December 2025 - Avallone, a Copenhagen-based leader in enterprise KYC (Know Your Customer) technology and services, today announced the appointment of Rolf Kranold Carlsen as Chief Product Officer (CPO), strengthening its leadership team as the company continues to expand its AI product capabilities and global reach.

Rolf joins Avallone with a strong track record in building and scaling AI-driven digital products across both high-growth technology companies and global enterprises. Most recently, he served as Senior Product Manager at Novo Nordisk, where he worked on advancing digital product initiatives within a complex, regulated environment. Prior to that, he held key product leadership roles at Corti, including Head of Product for its AI analytics platform, where he led product direction and execution within an AI-driven organisation.

Earlier in his career, Rolf spent over three years at 3Shape, working across product management, cloud solutions and business intelligence. His experience spans developing AI-enabled and data-driven products, improving user-centric design and delivering scalable platforms that support complex operational workflows. He began his career in economic consulting at Incentive and also served as a Teaching Assistant at the University of Copenhagen.

In his role as CPO, Rolf will focus on advancing Avallone’s AI-powered product suite, with a focus on embedding intelligent automation and machine learning into core KYC workflows to deliver measurable outcomes for customers. He will work closely across engineering, commercial and customer teams to ensure the platform continues to evolve in line with market demands and customer expectations.

“I am excited to join Avallone and contribute to a product that is already delivering significant impact for its customers,” says Rolf Kranold Carlsen. “AI presents a unique opportunity to fundamentally reshape how KYC is managed, moving from manual, fragmented processes to intelligent, automated workflows. There is a clear opportunity to further simplify complex KYC processes through thoughtful product design and data-driven innovation. My focus will be on building solutions that are intuitive to use while delivering tangible efficiency gains for global organisations.”

“Bringing Rolf into Avallone marks an important step in strengthening how we translate product innovation into customer value, with a specific focus on AI,” says Anders Meinert Jørgensen, CEO and Co-Founder of Avallone. “His experience working across fully AI native scale-ups and large enterprises gives him a unique perspective on building products that are not only powerful but also practical in real-world environments. And as AI becomes central to how enterprises manage compliance and risk, Rolf’s expertise will accelerate our ability to deliver smarter, more adaptive KYC solutions at scale.”

Rolf holds a Master of Science in Economics from the University of Copenhagen, with additional studies in Finance and Computer Science at New York University and Advanced Corporate Finance at the London School of Economics.
