Bengaluru: Scaler, a tech education platform, has appointed Ratnakar Reddy as the new Head of its B2B business for India and the MENA region. In this strategic role, he will lead Scaler’s efforts to support governments, digital-first companies, and large enterprises in their AI transformation journeys through industry-validated curricula and AI-powered learning solutions tailored to regional needs.
Reddy brings over 25 years of leadership experience from global technology giants such as Wipro, Microsoft, IBM, and most recently Google Cloud. His expertise in enabling digital transformation and driving strategic AI adoption will guide Scaler’s next phase of enterprise expansion.
“We are thrilled to welcome Ratnakar Reddy to our leadership team,” said Abhimanyu Saxena, Co-founder of Scaler. “His unparalleled cross-sector experience and deep insights into AI position him perfectly to spearhead our B2B expansion across India and MENA. As we strategically scale our operations and bridge the critical AI talent gap, Ratnakar’s leadership and expertise will be pivotal.”
Reddy emphasized the urgent need for large-scale workforce transformation. “With the advent of AI, the need to reskill and continuously evolve the existing workforce has become paramount across all sectors,” he said. “The immense demand for AI and Data Science skills across industries presents an unparalleled opportunity for India to cement its position as the skill capital of the world, meeting not only our domestic needs but also the surging global demand for talent in AI. Scaler, with its robust offerings, including industry-aligned curricula designed to meet real-world demands and future-proof careers, is the essential partner in driving this critical upskilling agenda and empowering professionals for the new era.”
Over the next 6–12 months, Reddy will focus on strengthening Scaler’s position as the preferred enterprise skilling partner, expanding business presence across India and MENA, and developing specialized curricula for IT/ITeS, GCCs, and government segments.
Scaler Enterprise has already made significant strides in the Middle East in 2025. The company partnered with ADGM Academy to deliver specialised skill development for local talent and rolled out targeted training programs for major organisations, including telecom operator DU. Scaler has also contributed to workforce enablement initiatives such as building a job portal with NAFIS to connect trained professionals with career opportunities.
