Headline Partner

Abhishek Narayan Singh, Chief Analytics Officer, Human Health, Merck & Co

I am a globally recognized leader in analytics, data science, and digital transformation, with over 20 years of experience driving innovation across life sciences, insurance, and consulting. I have deep experience in developing and delivering data- and analytics-led corporate innovation and business transformation. 

As Chief Analytics Officer at Merck & Co., I have led the development of advanced capabilities in data science, digital analytics, AI and ML, forecasting, market research, and omni-channel engagement, establishing global centers of excellence across the US, India, Europe, and Singapore. 

Before joining Merck, I was at MetLife, where I spearheaded enterprise-wide analytics adoption and operational transformation, leading strategic initiatives across global markets. Earlier in my career, I held leadership roles at McKinsey & Company and Mu Sigma, advising Fortune 500 clients on complex digital, data, and analytics transformations. 

I have been fortunate to pioneer industry-first data products, build AI solution portfolios, and lead high-performing global teams. As a transformation architect and thought leader, I remain deeply engaged in shaping the future of data-driven decision-making within healthcare and beyond.
