Manu Kumar, Chief Data & Analytics Officer, Richemont Group

I have built AI, data, and technology teams for companies like Microsoft, HP, BUPA, Vodafone, and Richemont. Each role has thrown unique technological, cultural, and strategic challenges. Setting up and scaling teams with elite capabilities and a profit centre mindset is what I enjoy most. Surrounded by some of the smartest people on the planet, working with models of astonishing and still emergent capabilities has been an insightful experience, and we are on the precipice of AGI and ASI.
