"Narratives not mentions, prediction not hindsight."

His background in strategic communications, reputation management, and public affairs shaped his understanding of how narratives influence perception across media environments. Under his leadership, Repsense has developed advanced AI capabilities that combine natural language processing, multimodal analysis, and large-scale data processing to deliver real-time insights into media and information ecosystems.

Mykolas Katkus operates at the intersection of technology, communications, and geopolitics, with a particular focus on disinformation, digital influence, and the strategic use of data in decision-making.

Policy & Institutional Presence

In October 2025, Mykolas participated in a GSSC discussion on the "European Democracy Shield" alongside European Commissioner Michael McGrath and Debunk.org, focused on protecting against external threats and strengthening civic engagement. He has also spoken at the Munich Cyber Security Conference on fighting algorithmic propaganda.

Funding Track Record

Under his leadership, Repsense closed a €2 million Seed round led by Tensor Ventures and Seed Starter (the CVC of Česká spořitelna bank), alongside BSV Ventures and Coinvest Capital - the round was completed in tranches throughout 2025.
