Co-founder and CEO of COMPUTD BV, with a BSc in Data Science and Knowledge Engineering, followed by an MSc in Data Science for Decision Making.

My mission is the democratization of Digitalisation. I envision a future where the digital revolution is inclusive, and Data Science and AI are accessible to all, not just a privileged few. At COMPUTD, our approach is simple yet profound: We chart a clear path from point A to B, providing tools that grow with you, from a bike to an aeroplane.

I've had the privilege of collaborating with giants like Mercedes-Benz, Nike, VDL Nedcar, and Boels, delivering impactful solutions tailored to their needs. From creating an intelligent workforce scheduler for a smaller enterprise to transitioning another from outdated tables to a state-of-the-art Azure data warehouse, my journey has been about making AI and Data Science meaningful and actionable.

As we stand on the cusp of a digital era, I see Digitalization as the linchpin of future businesses. But it's essential to tread wisely, leveraging AI not just as a buzzword but as a genuine solution to real-world challenges. My expertise particularly shines in sectors like Customer Service, Automotive, and Retail.

Outside the world of algorithms and data, I'm an avid Dungeons & Dragons player, a dog enthusiast, and above all, a staunch believer in the potential of people. Let's connect, collaborate, and drive the digital future together.

Edneil Bonet has built a professional life spanning more than thirty years in commercial vehicle operation, specializing in freight and passenger transport. Since entering the transportation industry in 1991, he has maintained a demanding seven-day schedule, demonstrating reliability and dedication to safety. Outside work, he takes pride in being a father of three and a grandfather of five. A recent milestone came with his home purchase in Sunrise, Florida, marking a significant step in personal stability and achievement.

Born in 1969, he grew up in Miami Beach, Florida, surrounded by Puerto Rican cultural traditions. At age three, his family moved to Miramar, settling into a newly built home that became a lasting part of their lives. His education included Miramar Elementary, Perry Middle School, and Miramar High School, as well as additional schools like St. Stephen’s Catholic School, Pembroke Christian Academy, American Academy, and The Starting Place, all of which gave him diverse learning experiences and shaped his early outlook.

In early adulthood, Edneil chose vocational training as his professional foundation. He enrolled at McFatter Vocational Center’s Commercial Vehicle Driving program, where he gained both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience. After graduating, he joined the transportation industry in 1991 as a licensed commercial driver, beginning a career that required focus, safety, and strict adherence to regulations. His dedication from the start built the groundwork for decades of consistent and reliable work.

Through his training, Bonet developed skills essential for professional drivers, including logistics, hazard management, weight distribution, and defensive driving. He also gained practical experience in vehicle inspections, brake checks, leak detection, and service log documentation. These lessons prepared him to prevent mechanical issues, extend vehicle life, and maintain strict safety standards, which have remained core to his approach for over three decades on the road.

Working seven days a week places Edneil Bonet in a demanding professional category. His job requires careful attention to fatigue management, strict compliance with federal regulations, and accurate recordkeeping. Each day begins with vehicle inspections and ends with detailed documentation, forming a disciplined routine that has become second nature. This consistent approach ensures reliability and safety, supporting passengers and cargo under his care.

Seven months ago, he reached a crucial personal goal when he purchased a condominium in Sunrise, Florida. After decades of renting, homeownership represented a milestone achieved through patience, resource management, and steady employment. The location keeps him close to the community he has known for years in Broward County, providing stability and continuity in his personal life.

Balancing professional and personal responsibilities has always been important to Edneil Bonet. He is the father of two sons and one daughter, who grew up in Middleburg. Although his daughter did not live with him, their relationship has remained strong. His family has grown to include five grandchildren, and he continues to manage family responsibilities alongside professional commitments, reflecting a life built on dedication, stability, and care.
