The Bench

A core team of operators. Assembled around your problem.

Below is some of our core team. Behind it sits a wider network of senior consultants we plug in by specialism — so every engagement is staffed by the people whose specific experience makes the difference, drawn from Microsoft, X& Financial, Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, and the Serbian AI Institute.

Co-Founders

Luka Bojović

Cambridge · Microsoft AI · Sanbo / X& Financial

Luka Bojović

Co-Founder · Project Lead & AI Architecture

Luka leads engagements end-to-end. He read engineering at Cambridge, spent years at Microsoft as a Senior Program Manager shaping the AI experiences inside Windows and Copilot+ PC, and most recently led product and AI on Sanbo — an AI-native platform for private capital markets. At Microsoft he was the lead PM on 20+ AI features now used by millions — Paint Cocreator, Windows Recall, Live Captions, Studio Effects — and at X& Financial he helped scale Sanbo from zero to $1m ARR and over $1b in AUM. He is the architect on most Aries engagements: framing the business case, designing the AI module, and owning the bar for evaluation and audit.

Enterprise data & analytics

Danica Božin

Data Science · Data Warehouse · Business Intelligence

Danica owns the layer that everything else stands on. She designs and builds the warehouses, semantic models and BI surfaces — and the data-science work on top of them — that turn fragmented operational data into something an AI module, or an executive, can actually trust. Without her, copilots hallucinate; with her, they cite.

Uroš Ristivojević

Data Science · Proprietary LLM Training

Uroš is our specialist for clients who want — or need — a model of their own. He has trained, fine-tuned and evaluated LLMs at production scale, and brings the rigor of a research engineer to the question of when a custom model is genuinely worth it versus when an off-the-shelf one will do.

Business Strategy · Analytics & Finance

She joins from senior strategy, analytics and finance roles across consulting and high-growth telecoms, and runs the commercial framing of our work — the business case, the unit economics, and the metrics that decide whether a pilot becomes a programme.

Predrag Cvetković
