Mindtree co-founder and former CEO of Birlasoft and Sasken, Anjan Lahiri says his latest venture Navikenz is focused on helping enterprises discover and implement Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled solutions to improve business processes. The technology industry veteran said that while Navikenz which was launched during the onset of the first Covid wave and thus flew under the radar for some time, has now been able to scale by engaging with Fortune 500 customers to determine what Artificial Intelligence can do for them, utilizing its Business Process Consulting, Enterprise Architecture, Cloud and Data Science capabilities. The company says both in life sciences and discrete manufacturing sectors it has bagged several large clients. "Navikenz has pioneered a differentiated approach to AI-solutioning. By taking learnings from Kaizen and TQM frameworks, we have formulated a proprietary framework. Services within the framework are designed to speed up organizational capabilities in AI-service generation and fulfilment, creating a pipeline of business generated use-case within a matter of weeks. Big and small enterprises need to leverage AI for enhancing better efficiencies in their process and we enable that to happen," Lahiri said.

From driver-assisted vehicles on our city streets to self-driving vehicles on our factory floors, robotic and autonomous systems are becoming commonplace. You may even have one in your home, vacuuming the floors for you while you stay busy with more meaningful work. The truth is, these hands-off systems are just about everywhere anymore. In a sign of the growing adoption of robotic systems, the market-advisory firm ABI Research predicts that, by 2025, more than 4 million commercial robots will be on the job in over 50,000 warehouses, up from just under 4,000 robotic warehouses in 2018.1 And that's just warehouses -- that's not the "everywhere else" where these worker bees are found.
