In addition to the management role within the E-INFRA Group, Teofil Mureșan is a member in Boards of Directors of several companies and non-profit organizations. Also, his belief that education is a catalyst for change has led him to become actively involved in many educational initiatives.

1997 is the year in which he took the step towards entrepreneurship by founding the first company in the E-INFRA Infrastructure Group: Electrogrup, through which he initially offered large mobile telephony companies in Romania services in energy infrastructure and telecom.

Teofil Mureșan played an essential role in the development of Electrogrup from the position of founder and then CEO for 18 years, the company expanding its services portfolio at an alert and continuous pace, becoming one of the most important builders of energy infrastructure, telecommunications and civil engineering in Romania. Since 2013, after consolidating its position in the Romanian market, Teofil has taken the Electrogrup business abroad, carrying out important construction and telecom infrastructure projects in several European countries, such as Germany, Poland, Belgium or the Netherlands.

Visionary, Teofil Mureșan understood that there are important synergies between the telecom, energy and civil engineering industries, so in 2007 he took the following steps in consolidating the E-INFRA Group: he founded the company Direct One, which today has the largest neutral long-distance national fiber optics network and adds Nova Power & Gas, a supplier and distributor of electricity and natural gas, to the Group’s portfolio. At the same time, in 2010, together with a German partner, he founded WESEE, with activity in the wind energy infrastructure sector, and in 2017 he acquired Netcity, the company that develops and operates through a strategic partnership with the City Hall, the entire metropolitan fiber optic infrastructure in Bucharest.

In addition, he supervised the launch of the first content delivery network, with online multi-screen and multi-platform capabilities on Direct One’s backbone network.

He is an experienced telecom professional with 21 years industry experience. Prior to Direct One, he was the Deputy CTO, Network Senior Director and member of the Executive Council and Strategic Review Committee of Vodafone Romania.  During his 11 years with Vodafone’s local subsidiary, he was responsible for managing the company’s network infrastructure and services platforms, overseeing an annual budget of over €300m and coordinating more than 330 professionals. During this time, Marian also assisted Vodafone’s local acquisition of Connex and helped with the integration following the transaction.
