Nisum has appointed Anurag Chauhan as its new Chief Executive Officer, signalling a leadership transition as the global technology consulting and digital services firm increases its focus on artificial intelligence-driven growth and digital transformation.
The appointment marks the end of a more than 26-year leadership stint by founder Imtiaz Mohammady, who will transition to the role of Chairman while continuing to guide the company's long-term strategic direction.
The move comes as enterprises worldwide increase investments in AI, automation and digital business transformation, creating new growth opportunities for technology services providers.
Leadership transition enters a new phase
Chauhan joins Nisum with more than three decades of experience in the technology services industry. Over the course of his career, he has held leadership positions at Motorola, Accenture and Coforge, building expertise across technology consulting, business transformation and enterprise growth.
Before joining Nisum, he served as Chief Executive Officer of Nous Infosystems.
His appointment places him at the helm of the company during a period when organisations are increasingly seeking AI-enabled business solutions and technology modernisation programmes.
AI and digital transformation at the centre of growth plans
In his new role, Chauhan will oversee Nisum's next phase of growth as the company expands its investments in:
- AI-powered platforms
- Digital transformation services
- Technology-led business solutions
- Enterprise consulting capabilities
Nisum serves clients across multiple industries, including:
- Retail
- Financial services
- Healthcare
- Sports
- Entertainment
The company's focus on AI reflects a broader shift across the technology services sector, where firms are increasingly embedding artificial intelligence into consulting, product engineering and digital transformation engagements.
Founder to remain involved in long-term strategy
While stepping away from day-to-day executive responsibilities, Imtiaz Mohammady will continue to play a strategic role as Chairman.
Mohammady founded Nisum and led the organisation for more than two decades, overseeing its growth into a global technology consulting and digital services company.
The transition is designed to ensure leadership continuity while enabling the company to pursue new opportunities emerging from AI adoption and enterprise technology modernisation.
Focus turns to the next stage of expansion
The leadership change comes at a time when technology services companies are repositioning themselves around AI-enabled offerings and platform-led business models.
With Chauhan taking charge and Mohammady continuing as Chairman, Nisum is seeking to build on its global presence while strengthening its capabilities in AI, consulting and digital transformation. The company's next phase of growth is expected to centre on helping enterprises adopt emerging technologies and scale technology-led business innovation.
