Kailash Kothari

I'm responsible for driving monetization and growth of our Cisco IoT Control Center business. IoT Control Center serves 225+M IoT devices globally spanning Connected Cars, Fleets, smart meters, point of sale devices, tablets and many more, enabling enterprises to leverage the SaaS based UI/API and deploy their IoT solutions. I've led from the front lines through various phases of our business - startup days, hockey stick growth phase, successful exit via acquisition of Jasper by Cisco, driving profitable growth post acquisition, returning value back to Cisco by successfully enabling broader portfolio plays. As a people leader, I’ve had the privilege of making bold people decisions and reaping the rewards, managing change through turbulent times and unleashing the best out of a diverse set of team members.
