Ayati Announces the Appointment of Piyush Mehta, New Board Member
Scotch Plains, NJ. Ayati welcomes the appointment of Piyush Mehta to the Board of Directors. This brings the number of board members to five.
Piyush brings with him intensive expertise in software and technology experiences. His appetite for working with start-ups and growing them into successful organizations with a culture of family values will be a valuable addition to the Ayati team. We are excited and look forward to working with Piyush on strategy as we take the next transformational step towards more impact and more social leaders in India.
Piyush has over 25 years of entrepreneurial experience, with the past 20 focused in software and technology services. Currently Piyush serves as CEO and a Board Member of Data Dynamics, Inc., a company he founded in 2012. Piyush is committed to building software solutions that drive value for his customers. He believes that a customer-centric focus is a must, and thus builds an internal team culture with a “customer-first” mindset.
This customer-centric focus has allowed Data Dynamics to have 25 percent of the Fortune 100 companies as its customers, as well as 12 of the world’s top 20 banks.
He is passionate about business start-ups, and loves the rollercoaster ride that comes with it as well as the challenges inherent to it. Piyush believes a start-up team becomes a family as they spend more waking hours together.
This has helped develop a culture that inspires and rewards creativity and unity within the organization. Further, such a sense of belonging and commitment with each team member becomes core to business success.
In addition, Piyush is focused on driving balance sheet value for his shareholders, while ensuring that the company is efficient with its capital. This has allowed him to build organizations with “boot-strap” funding, relying on organic sales to help drive growth rather than a constant dependence on external funding.
Often called the “Dean of Data,” Piyush has established alliances and partnerships with key industry leaders within the data management field. His extensive global experience includes areas such as business strategy, treasury and finance, investor relations, acquisitions and divestitures, and operations.
