Mumbai: Reliance Enterprise Intelligence Limited (REIL), a joint venture between Reliance Industries Limited and Meta Platforms, has appointed Parminder Singh as its founding Chief Executive Officer. The move comes as the company looks to accelerate enterprise AI adoption across India by leveraging Meta’s AI capabilities alongside Reliance’s enterprise reach, infrastructure, and Jio’s nationwide connectivity.
The appointment signals a strategic push to build a scalable and sovereign AI ecosystem for Indian enterprises, positioning REIL at the forefront of the country’s fast-evolving enterprise technology landscape.
“Building India’s enterprise AI capability is a generational opportunity, and REIL was created to lead that charge. Parminder brings precisely the blend of global technology leadership, deep Asian market intuition, and executive credibility that this role demands. He has built digital businesses at scale, navigated complex transformations, and earned the trust of boards, engineers, and customers alike. Parminder’s appointment is a critical first step towards assembling a world-class team that will define enterprise AI in India — and set a benchmark well beyond it,” said Akash Ambani, Chairman, Reliance Jio Infocomm.
Singh brings decades of global experience across leading technology and media organisations, including Google, Apple, Twitter, IBM, and HCL. He has also held leadership roles at Mediacorp Pte Ltd and Tatler Asia, where he led digital and AI-led transformation initiatives. More recently, he co-founded ClayboxAI and has been associated with Kampd.
His expertise spans online marketing, media planning, lead generation, product management, brand strategy, mobile marketing, business development, and marketing communications—areas that are expected to play a key role in shaping REIL’s growth and market strategy.
“Enterprise AI in India is not a future story — it is a right-now opportunity. Indian enterprises need a trusted AI partner who understands both the technology and the business context. REIL is built to be exactly that. With Jio and Meta’s combined capabilities, we have a genuinely differentiated proposition. I am deeply honoured to lead this venture, and excited by what we can build together,” said Parminder Singh, CEO, Reliance Enterprise Intelligence Limited.
