Born in Russia, Khayn founded Atlona in 2003 with his brother, Michael Khain.

From the moment my brother and I first set foot in Silicon Valley, we knew that success would be the result of listening to our customers, and we continue to follow that very same credo within Atlona’s activities today.”
