Madhur Bajpai — CEO
If I were to choose a symbol to describe my life principle, it would be “Yin-Yang”: The harmonious coexistence of two contradictory perspectives. I have striven to maintain the balance between various dimensions of my life: academics and sports, creativity and operational excellence, growth and sustainability. I am in charge of the business side of audio drama shows content for US markets in Pocket FM. Continuing on the path to build high impact customer facing products and businesses, I had the fortune to lead the launch of Tata Digital's foray into ONDC powered food delivery. Earlier, as the product lead for new businesses in the Q-commerce and auto retail space in Ola, I worked on solving problems at scale and driving disruption across multiple industries via execution bias and outcome orientation. In addition the experience of leading the product on vehicle and manufacturing software in Ola Electric, has provided unprecedented opportunities for learning in the domain and building world class products for consumers. Previously, as the Chief of Staff to the Group CEO, I drove group level initiatives such as strategic planning, setting up of governance processes, and leading cross functional transformational projects including Ola's launch in London. I am an MBA graduate from Indian Institute of Management Bangalore and a gold medalist from the B. Tech. IT batch of College of Engineering Pune. I hold ~3 years of experience of taking proactive initiatives in the design and development of engineering projects on financial risk and capital allocation at D. E. Shaw India. After joining IIMB, I did my summer internship at Goldman Sachs, Mumbai office. I rotated one-month each with the Sales/Trading desks of the Equities and Fixed Income divisions. Outside the classroom, I played cricket as a pace bowler for the institute cricket team. Writing about the convergence of cricket and life, is my favorite pastime. In Dec 2016, as a part of a delegation, I represented IIMB at Vietnam and my love for travelling at three other countries in the South-East Asia.
