    hitesh seth

    Affiliate, Graduate School of Business - Executive Education

    BioI am a lifelong technologist, architect, and builder who thrives at the intersection of business strategy, innovation, and execution. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to lead technology, data, and AI initiatives at organizations including JPMorgan Chase, American Express, Salesforce, IQVIA, and Kore.ai, helping transform complex enterprises in financial services, healthcare, and life sciences.

    What energizes me most is turning complexity into simplicity—bringing together people, technology, and strategy to create meaningful outcomes. Today, my focus is on how organizations can responsibly leverage AI and agentic systems to augment human potential, improve decision-making, and create new forms of value.

    Outside of work, I enjoy mentoring emerging leaders, speaking and writing about enterprise AI, and learning from people with different experiences and perspectives. I’m excited to join the SEP community and engage with fellow leaders who are shaping the future of business, technology, and society.
