New Delhi: AI-first venture-backed platform AskSila has appointed Tarun Singhal as its Senior Growth Leader, a move aimed at accelerating the company’s expansion in India while strengthening its presence across global markets.
The appointment marks the beginning of AskSila’s global growth strategy, with India positioned as a key strategic market. In his new role, Singhal will focus on driving awareness, enterprise adoption and business growth for the company’s AI-powered Digital Twin platform.
Prior to joining AskSila, Singhal served as Group CEO at RuralShores. Earlier, he was Director – Business Development, Enterprise (Large GCC-focused Global Accounts), Marketing, Branding and Communications at Sopra Steria India, while also overseeing similar responsibilities for SBS India (formerly Sopra Banking Software India). He has also held leadership positions at HCL, building international client relationships and leading digital transformation initiatives.
AskSila said Singhal brings extensive experience in business development, enterprise growth and AI-led digital transformation, which will support the company’s next phase of expansion.
Speaking on his appointment, Tarun Singhal, Senior Growth Leader, AskSila, said, “I’m excited to share that I’ve begun a new chapter with AskSila, an AI-first, venture-backed company within the Viven ecosystem, built by Ashutosh Garg and leaders from teams behind unicorn journeys including Eightfold AI, and powered by world-class investors – Khosla Ventures and Foundation Capital. This is not just a career move for me. It is a step into one of the most important shifts of our time: Generative AI, Digital Twins, Expert-as-a-Service, and the future of work.”
He added, “For years, so many people have reached out to me to discuss growth, leadership, brand, marketing, business transformation, and career choices. Those conversations have always been deeply meaningful to me. Now, with AskSila, that expertise can be available in a new way. You can interact with my Digital Twin anytime to ask, explore, learn, and engage with the thinking, experience, and perspectives I have built over the years. That is what makes this mission so powerful. AskSila is building AI-powered Digital Twins that help preserve knowledge, accelerate decision-making, and make trusted human expertise accessible to anyone, anywhere, at any time. I’m genuinely excited for you to meet and interact with my AI Twin here: https://www.asksila.com/tarun-singhal?referral=AKsC9H9u ”
Highlighting the company’s focus on India, Singhal said the country’s talent pool, digital-first adoption, enterprise ecosystem and growing emphasis on AI present a significant opportunity for AskSila’s expansion.
He further stated, “I’m excited to contribute to this journey as a Senior Growth Leader, helping build awareness, adoption, and impact for AskSila in one of the most dynamic and opportunity-rich markets in the world.”
Emphasising the role of AI in the future workplace, he concluded, “The next wave of enterprise value will not come from automation alone. It will come from amplification.
From ensuring that AI does not replace humans, but makes humans more relevant, more available, and more impactful. The future of work will not be humans versus AI. It will be humans amplified by AI.”
