Shamlan Siddiqi
Shamlan SiddiqiVice President, Data as an Asset, NTT DATA

Shamlan helps organizations make the most out of their data. While many recognize data’s potential value, few develop or implement effective strategies to harness data’s value and take full advantage of the latest advancements in automation, security and storage technologies. As a former Public Sector CTO, he knows the challenges government leaders face in defining, innovating and implementing a comprehensive data vision and strategy while supporting citizen imperatives.
