BioI'm a hands-on technology executive and enterprise architect with 25+ years turning large-scale data, AI/ML, GenAI, and Agentic AI into production reality inside the world's most regulated industries — Financial Services, Insurance, and Life Sciences. I've built and led global engineering and architecture teams and shipped mission-critical platforms serving hundreds of millions of users and global clinical research programs.

Today I'm building Ādisūtra.ai — helping enterprises move from AI curiosity to AI capability, from first principles.

I enjoy mentoring emerging young leaders (especially young women, after being inspired from Grace Hopper Conferences), speaking and writing about enterprise AI, and learning from people with different experiences and perspectives. I’m excited to join this community and engage with fellow leaders who are shaping the future of business, technology, and society.

Outside of work, I enjoy portrait photography, golf, cooking and traveling…

DiPali Shah

Affiliate, Graduate School of Business - Executive Education

BioDiPali Shah is a Silicon Valley real estate broker, entrepreneur, and strategic operator with nearly three decades of experience advising founders, executives, investors, and multigenerational families on complex real estate and capital decisions. Her work focuses on luxury estates, strategic acquisitions, private negotiations, and high-value off-market transactions where discretion, trust, and long-term judgment are essential.

Over the course of her career, DiPali has represented the sale and acquisition of multimillion-dollar properties throughout Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area, including transactions exceeding $16 million in Atherton, Los Altos Hills, Woodside, Palo Alto, Emerald Hills, and surrounding markets. She is known for navigating complex negotiations, relationship-driven transactions, and high-stakes decision-making environments where confidentiality and strategic insight are paramount.

Prior to real estate, DiPali worked as a market maker at the Pacific Stock Exchange and in clinical hospital environments in San Francisco and Oakland. These early experiences shaped her approach to probabilistic thinking, behavioral dynamics, and decision-making under uncertainty, perspectives that continue to inform her work across real estate, entrepreneurship, and emerging technologies.

DiPali is an alumna of the Stanford Graduate School of Business through the Stanford Executive Program and a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley.

Her current work and research interests focus on the intersection of artificial intelligence, behavioral psychology, markets, and trust-based systems, with particular emphasis on how emerging technologies are reshaping human decision-making, capital allocation, and institutional behavior. She is developing entrepreneurial ventures and strategic initiatives related to AI infrastructure, digital trust systems, and technology-enabled platforms designed for high-stakes and relationship-driven environments.

Her broader interests include global business trends, negotiation strategy, emerging technologies, economic systems, and the psychology of human behavior. She speaks English, Gujarati, and Spanish, with proficiency in Mandarin.
