Eduard Kučera is the cofounder of Prague-based internet security company Avast Software.
In 1988, he and Pavel Baudis, with whom he'd worked at Research Institute of Mathematical Machines, cofounded ALWIL to sell an antivirus software.
Following the fall of Communism in 1989, the pair broke off to establish what would become Avast.
Now run by an outside CEO, Avast, which secures online activities for more than 435 million users, went public in 2018.
In 2021, Avast, which Kučera chaired Avast from 2006 to 2014, agreed to merge with cybersecurity firm NortonLifeLock.
Kučera is one of the biggest watch collectors in Czechia; he also owns a significant vintage car collection with his son.
