"Amish's proven ability to scale businesses in new markets and accelerate innovation with key technology partners to deliver transformative business outcomes brings exactly the operational velocity we need to galvanize our teams and make our bold moonshot goal a tangible reality for every single customer,” said Girish Rishi, CEO of Cognite. The appointment comes on the heels of Cognite recently announcing its moonshot goal of delivering $100 billion of realized value to customers by 2035. In this critical new role, Sabharwal will focus on accelerating the achievement of this target through commercializing new products, serving adjacent markets and accelerating co-innovation with industry leading AI technology partners. His immediate priority is to help industrial companies get more value from their existing operational investments by extending the use of Cognite across the enterprise and unlocking more silos of data. The open nature of the Cognite AI and Data Platform addresses key barriers to adopting the latest AI, data and cloud technologies, especially across new use cases and the value chain. With the seamless integration of incumbent systems and the transformative power of the Cognite AI and Data Platform, intelligent agents can leverage more real-time, trusted, AI-ready operational technology (OT), information technology (IT), and engineering data. By extending the platform and accelerating innovation with key partners, industrial customers can further improve business outcomes, including production optimization, operating cost reduction, and risk mitigation. Sabharwal's extensive background in product, engineering, sales and customer success is perfectly timed with Cognite's scaling trajectory. He joins the senior leadership team with a proven track record of creating customer-centric business strategies and scaling global revenue in new markets through impactful growth and value engineering initiatives. Most recently, as part of the executive team at Trackunit, the global leader in IoT telematics, he led the go-to-market teams in scaling the business beyond $200 million, achieving unicorn status and a successful exit to Goldman Sachs Asset Management. Prior to that, Sabharwal began his executive journey at AVEVA, leading both sales and product organizations through their successful transition and exit to Schneider Electric. "I am thrilled to join Cognite at such a pivotal time in the company's journey,” said Amish Sabharwal. “The opportunity to expand Cognite's market leading Industrial AI capabilities and value engineering scope to harness even more complex AI and data environments that will deliver massive, tangible business impact for the world's largest companies is immense. I look forward to leading the charge as we help customers further unlock AI and realize their full digital potential.” About Cognite Cognite makes AI work for industry.
