Avi Vaknin is a technology entrepreneur, infrastructure visionary, and business leader whose career has been dedicated to helping organizations leverage technology to operate more securely, efficiently, and profitably.
Born in Jerusalem, Israel, in 1978, Avi Vaknin has been at the forefront of technological innovation for over two decades. He earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and began his career at Intel Technology in Israel, where he led training teams and contributed to the production of Intel Pentium processors.
From 2001 to 2004, prior to relocating to the United States, Avi worked for the Israeli Ministry of Defense in the fields of data security and cybercrime prevention, helping develop critical cybersecurity measures designed to protect national infrastructure and sensitive information systems. This experience provided him with a strong foundation in security, technology operations, and large-scale infrastructure management that would later influence his entrepreneurial journey.
In 2002, Avi founded Telx Computers, a company that would grow into one of South Florida’s most respected managed IT service providers. Under his leadership, Telx Computers evolved from a local technology support company into a comprehensive IT solutions provider delivering managed services, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, disaster recovery, business continuity planning, server monitoring, and enterprise technology consulting.
Recognizing the rapid evolution of technology and the increasing demands placed on modern organizations, Avi continued expanding his vision beyond traditional IT services. He launched Telx Telecom, providing advanced business communication solutions including VoIP phone systems, hosted PBX, SIP trunking, call center technologies, and unified communications platforms.
As businesses increasingly shifted their focus toward digital growth, Avi identified another opportunity and founded Telx Web, a digital agency specializing in website development, search engine optimization, branding, ecommerce, content creation, and digital marketing.
Understanding that technology and marketing must work together to drive business success, Avi further expanded his portfolio with the creation of Lev Media Marketing, where he serves as Chief Technology Officer. Lev Media Marketing is a full-service marketing agency specializing in digital advertising, social media management, video production, branding, content marketing, lead generation, and growth strategy. Through Lev Media Marketing, Avi helps organizations strengthen their market presence and accelerate growth through data-driven marketing initiatives.
In April 2023, Avi joined the EzFill team as Chief Technology Officer. His mission was to strengthen the company's technology infrastructure, improve operational efficiency, increase productivity, and build a scalable platform capable of supporting rapid growth.
Under Avi's technology leadership, EzFill enhanced its systems, expanded its digital capabilities, and improved operational performance. During this period, the company experienced significant growth, increasing revenue from $7.6 million in 2022 to $23.2 million in 2023. Revenue continued to climb to $36 million in 2024 and reached approximately $90 million in 2025.
This rapid expansion was driven by a combination of strategic marketing initiatives, technology innovation, operational improvements, and acquisitions, positioning EzFill as one of the fastest-growing companies in its sector.
Avi's entrepreneurial journey reached another major milestone with the creation of 3EX Hosting, an enterprise-grade data center and infrastructure company focused on delivering colocation, cloud infrastructure, private connectivity, disaster recovery, and business continuity solutions.
Avi began building cloud hosting infrastructure in 2006, years before AWS and Microsoft Azure became industry leaders. Over the past two decades, thousands of users and businesses—including hospitals, law firms, and professional service organizations—have securely hosted their data and applications on his cloud platforms.
With the acquisition of the 3EX Hosting data center in Boca Raton, Florida, formerly the LexisNexis enterprise data center, Avi expanded his cloud and hosting portfolio to provide enterprise-grade infrastructure, security, and connectivity for businesses across the United States.
Today, Avi oversees a diverse portfolio of technology and marketing businesses that collectively provide end-to-end solutions covering managed IT services, cybersecurity, telecommunications, web development, cloud computing, digital marketing, branding, enterprise infrastructure, data center operations, and AI-driven support technologies. Through his leadership, these organizations serve thousands of users and businesses across North America, helping clients leverage innovation to achieve growth, security, reliability, and operational excellence.
With more than 23 years of experience spanning cybersecurity, enterprise technology, telecommunications, cloud infrastructure, digital marketing, and data center operations, Avi remains committed to building solutions that empower organizations to grow, adapt, and thrive in an increasingly connected world.
