We are excited to announce that Marco Deutsch has joined Fragomen in the newly-created position of Chief Digital and Technology Officer. In this role Marco will work to help drive a digital future for immigration that is simple, smooth and connected for our clients, their employees and their families as we continue to implement and build out the vision of Fragomen Technologies, Inc., our unique subsidiary focused on the nexus of law and technology.

Marco brings more than 20 years of business and technology experience, with a strong track record of successful transformation programs, IT operations excellence and business innovation.
“We are delighted that Marco has joined our stellar technology team in this important role,” said Chairman Austin T. Fragomen, Jr. “Marco’s experience and strategic expertise will further drive innovation and transformation at Fragomen as we continue to invest in integrated technology that is rooted in our industry-leading immigration knowledge, data and experience.”
Marco joins Fragomen after five years as Deloitte’s Global Chief Solution Officer, where he and his team were responsible for the creation of IT strategies, delivering business-impacting solutions and associated services and infrastructure across all of Deloitte’s business units.
“Marco joins us at this particularly exciting time for the firm,” said Vivek Wadhwa, Fragomen’s Chief Operating Officer. “Fragomen Technologies is growing and deploying solutions that deliver a simpler, more streamlined experience and enable intuitive and transparent program management, with a focus on data and analytics.”

He earned his MBA – specializing in Information Technology, Taxation and Accounting – from the University of Passau in Germany. He will be based in Fragomen’s Chicago office and will oversee the entire suite of Fragomen’s core technologies.
