I have been named one of the "Top 100 Most Influential People in Technology" and one of the "Top 100 Thought Leaders". American Management Association (AMA) named me one of the "Leaders to Watch in 2015".

Over the years, I have architected many customer/partner/joint-venture/business transformational relationships with cross industry, private and public sector global brands such as GE, MasterCard, American Express, Northrop Grumman, PepsiCo, IBM, Home Depot, Netscape, Infosys, French Social Security Services, Gartner, Cambridge Technology Partners, JP Morgan Chase, CSC, and others.

At the age of 14, I began what would be the first of many businesses: cobbling together stereo components to sell from my father’s home in Dhaka, Bangladesh in order to save the money I would need to support my plan to study in the United States. I left my birth-land Bangladesh at the age of 17, and now call America my home.
