He was born in Haskovo (southern Bulgaria) and started his career at Monitor Group, where he worked on strategy, marketing, and SG&A optimization projects for a number of clients, including a Fortune 15 company in the energy industry, a large mining client in South Africa, and a telecom conglomerate in Russia.
In addition to business consulting, Vassilev has been involved in teaching economic policy at Sofia University as part of the Economic and Business Administration Department (the program is affiliated with the Microeconomics of Competitiveness Network headed by Prof. Michael Porter at the Institute of Strategy and Competitiveness, Harvard Business School).
