Akshay G. — CEO
I currently lead Central Strategy for Third-Party Monetisation at Zomato, building user journeys that enable non-endemic brands to engage Zomato’s customer base through advertising formats, partnerships, and platform integrations. Until Dec-2025, I led Payments Strategy, working across partners, product, and operations to improve payment success rates and strengthen checkout reliability. Prior to Zomato, I worked across fintech and consumer internet in operating and leadership roles. I was part of Indifi, one of India’s leading MSME-focused fintechs, and from 2020–2022 served as CEO of a fintech startup in Delhi NCR, where I built the lending product from the ground up, scaled the loan book, and led the company through a key growth phase. Earlier in my career, I worked with and advised organisations including DBS, Nomura, and Yatra.com. I’m a 3x founder with over 14 years of experience building and scaling technology-led businesses across payments, lending, and logistics, and leading product and business teams through growth and operating model transitions. I hold a B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Delhi and an MBA from IIM Ahmedabad. I’ve cleared all three levels of the CFA Program and the FRM, and hold a US patent (#8392463).
