In her advisor role, Shantha will be helping DecisionX on two key priorities. First, shaping DecisionX’s enterprise go-to-market strategy across vertical industries, with an emphasis on outcome-led positioning. Second, building relationships with global capability centres, system integrators, and analyst houses where the platform can scale through partnerships.

“Some of the most consequential AI work in the enterprise today is happening in the context layer, where an AI system actually understands what the data means, why it moves, and what decision it should drive. The team at DecisionX has approached this with rare technical depth and clarity of purpose. I am delighted to partner with Ranjan and the founding team to bring this work to more enterprises, and to ensure the value reaches the strategy and analytics leaders who need it most”, said Shantha Maheswari Sekhar, Strategic Advisor, GTM and Industry Relations, DecisionX.
