Khanderao Kand

Advisors - Technical

I am an seasoned entrepreneurial technologist with a profound passion for applying AI and emerging technologies to develop high-impact solutions. Over the past 30 years in Silicon Valley, I've dedicated my efforts equally to startups and leading industries. During my journey, I had the privilege of leading significant projects such as Amazon Data Catalog and Analytics, where I spearheaded groundbreaking initiatives. Prior to that, I led teams in building Oracle's AI cloud service and big data service, contributing to the advancement of technology in these domains. My expertise extends beyond mere technological prowess; I have a track record of building AI and Big Data-based solutions tailored to various industries. From Adtech to Telecommunications, and from personalized recommendations to assistance systems, I've navigated diverse sectors, leveraging innovation to drive meaningful outcomes. In essence, my career has been defined by a relentless pursuit of innovation and a commitment to leveraging technology for positive change. I founded GITPRO, a platform for technology professionals and entrepreneurs, and mentor entrepreneurs and startups (Qwardo, Sparkflow, ViridiusChem to name few).

 

Several years back, I was introduced to Eugene when he was an EIR at Artiman Ventures. His child-like enthusiasm and professor-like deep thinking sparked an instant. I share his contagious passion for using technology and algorithms to serve humanity to solve lifestyle diseases. It has been motiv8ting to work with Eugene, Dr. Lawrence and Motiv8t’s expert team.

 

I make time to get engaged in community/social service organizations, professional networking organization of technology professionals and entrepreneurs, reading technology/self-development/geopolitical books, and hiking (Climbed Half Dome twice and now planning Mount Whitney, Killamanjaro).
