"TECHNOLOGY SHOULD SERVE YOUR BUSINESS; YOUR BUSINESS SHOULD NEVER SERVE TECHNOLOGY" -- Ali Davachi
Ali Davachi has over 25 years of hands-on experience with all facets of complex technology implementation at scale. This type of frictionless digital transformation and business acceleration is both possible and inevitable when you have the right (business-driven) platform and implementation partner in your corner. As a serial entrepreneur, he has led and delivered projects in Fortune 500 firms (healthcare, consumer products, financial services, and direct-to-consumer pure plays) with large volume mobile, payment, e-commerce, telecommunications, and customer-facing applications. Working with these businesses, his company has delivered innovative solutions driving millions in savings while allowing these firms to pursue new greenfield opportunities. Ali has several elegant but straightforward philosophies to help companies. We talk about them on the show in a bit more depth. The result is that clients retain control of their business, strategy, and customer relationships and data, all while taking advantage of 80-90% lower costs and a 70-90% reduction in time to market.
