He has more than 35 years of diverse experience including working in leadership positions at multibillion-dollar companies such as Siemens and SAP, successfully establishing startup ventures, and serving as a founder and managing director at Dot1. 

Customer centricity is at the core of Sanjay’s ethos.  He firmly believes that the leap of faith a customer places in a business must quickly be converted to trust.

Sanjay has been instrumental in achieving several milestones in the business solutions space, particularly through the use of SAP as the technology layer.  In the late 1990s, he spearheaded the technological evolution in the media and entertainment industry across Asia Pacific and continues to drive innovation as the dynamics of this sector evolve.
