About

For close to three decades, I have been part of some of the most iconic companies of their time, either building them from the ground up or contributing at senior leadership levels. Despite my limitations with formal degrees, I survived, learned, and stayed relentlessly open to entrepreneurs and their ideas. In 2002, I founded Movinture, Asia’s first Global Information Lifecycle Management company, at a time when there was no startup ecosystem, no fairs, and no government support. I understand firsthand that the life of an entrepreneur is among the toughest professional journeys one can choose. From my early days at Procom, later acquired into Oracle through Sun Microsystems, to TDB, which I scaled from zero to 280 employees across three continents and six countries serving over 1,100 customers, my journey has consistently been about building and scaling. I also founded Tiyo, India’s first hyperconverged healthtech company, which became a market leader in 16 markets and ranked among the top five nationally for three consecutive years in its category. Not every story was a win. YJF met its natural end due to structural financial challenges. But every experience, without exception, has been a teacher. Today, I am building what I believe will be a lifelong pursuit: Quantum Tiger, a company designed to challenge the obvious and help humans outperform their potential, with AI as a true companion rather than a replacement. Alongside this, I continue to advise startups and remain deeply committed to teaching, having trained nearly 5,000 chartered accountants, engineers, and MBAs over the years. As part of this journey, my work increasingly focuses on foundational systems and first-principle thinking, exploring how intelligence, energy, and computation intersect at scale. Some of this work has moved beyond theory into protected intellectual property, shaped quietly and deliberately, with the long view in mind. The objective is not novelty for its own sake, but to build enduring frameworks that can support sovereign capability, resilience, and human progress over decades. Quantum Tiger will evolve in the months ahead. Until then, I will keep building, keep supporting, and keep hustling, for businesses, for people, and for potential. One lesson I carry with me always: never say, “I quit.”
