Headline Partner

Ashish Verma, US Chief Data and Analytics Officer, Deloitte

As Deloitte’s US Chief Data and Analytics Officer, I enable Deloitte’s executive committee and our clients to plan and execute new business strategies with technological innovation. This is done while driving AI, including agentic AI, into day-to-day operations, evolving key data and analytics capabilities to meet changing market dynamics, and delivering IT-enabled business transformations.  

With 28 years of consulting expertise, including 20 at Deloitte, I have experience as a leading AI and data technology strategist. I have worked with telecoms, media, technology, financial services, consumer and industrial products, automotive, transportation, hospitality, energy, health care and life services clients in the areas of domain specific vertical solutions, M&A, customer experience, business and finance transformation solutions.  

In my role as a data leader, I bring my experience across industries to help organizations harness data and technology to drive transformation, innovation, and growth. Furthermore, I am a frequent speaker at external vendor conferences, CDAO, CFO, CIO, CTO debriefs, in addition to writing on the topic of disruptive technologies and their impacts on organizations.
