The 7% who scale AI don't have better technology—they have better intelligence. After analyzing 700+ AI transformations worth over $5Bn across markets from Chennai to Tel Aviv, San Francisco to Paris, I've discovered what separates success from struggle: access to peer-validated strategies from executives who've already delivered results.

My Journey: From Entrepreneur to AI Network Builder

‍

The Foundation Years

‍

I started as an entrepreneur building an EdTech startup, learning firsthand the challenges of scaling technology solutions in complex markets. This early experience taught me that execution trumps innovation every time—a lesson that would prove invaluable across my career.

‍

Scaling Through Education and Finance

‍

As employee #2 at Great Learning, I headed sales for the business school, helping scale one of India's premier executive education platforms to serve thousands of working professionals. I then transitioned to Royal Bank of Scotland as a Senior Leader for 3+ years, where I gained deep insights into how Fortune 500 enterprises approach technology transformation, risk management, and strategic decision-making.

‍

The Hard Lessons

‍

After a couple of failed ventures, I learned what every successful entrepreneur discovers: failure is the best teacher. These experiences gave me a unique perspective on why promising strategies fail in execution and what it takes to build resilient, scalable operations that survive market pressures.

‍

Building and Scaling Success

‍

I founded and scaled Growthfluence, a consulting firm helping IT and software companies acquire enterprise customers and accelerate business growth. Through hundreds of client engagements, I developed frameworks for navigating complex B2B sales cycles and understanding how enterprises actually make technology decisions—insights that proved crucial for my later AI work.

‍

After successfully building and exiting a product company, I joined Xerago as Chief Business Officer, a digital and AI transformation firm, where I worked directly with mid-market and enterprise companies implementing AI at scale. This role gave me front-row access to what works—and what fails—in real-world AI implementations across multiple industries.

‍

The CXOAxis Breakthrough

‍

Through analyzing 700+ AI transformations worth over $5Bn, one pattern emerged: the most successful leaders don't rely on vendor promises or theoretical frameworks. They learn from peers who've solved similar challenges in different contexts. This insight became the foundation for CXOAxis, the global premier invite-only network now serving executives worldwide.

My unique combination of technical understanding and business scaling experience helps me bridge the gap between AI capabilities and measurable business outcomes.

Peer-Validated Intelligence

Having analyzed hundreds of transformations and connected with 2,500+ CXOs, I know the difference between what sounds good in boardrooms and what actually delivers results in production.

Pattern Recognition

From EdTech to banking, consulting to product development, I've learned to identify the underlying principles that make complex technology initiatives succeed or fail.
