Neeraj Vadhan

I am the Senior Client Lead for a global platform company in Silicon Valley; with P&L responsibility and leading a team of thousands of employees around the globe.I bring an entrepreneurial mindset and curiosity to our team that drives us to deeply understand our client’s business and culture to build and run massively scaled businesses. I am a “hands-on, roll up your sleeves” innovator that has incubated new Accenture capabilities in Operations and Technology, opened 5 new delivery centers, and named on 4 patents (+2 pending) for platforms using artificial intelligence to run scaled operations more effectively.I started my career as a software engineer and am known for my ability to bridge the communication lines between coders and business leaders. I have led new business strategies from concept to execution and worked across nearly every business function, from operations to engineering.I earned a Bachelor of Science in computer engineering from the University of Rhode Island with a minor in mathematics.Outside of Accenture, I serve as a member of Joint Venture Silicon Valley’s (JVSV) Executive Committee, bringing together leaders from the private and public sectors to address issues affecting the Silicon Valley economy and quality of life. I also am a venture capital investor with Emergent Ventures and an angel investor in several startups focused on enterprise platforms that are disrupting the status quo.I grew up in New York, lived in Chicago, moved to Orlando, and then settled in Silicon Valley with my wife (Anu) and 3 children (Layla, Siyona, & Dylan). When I’m not on the sidelines coaching kids’ sports, I’m cross-training or playing tennis (or admittedly recharging with a power nap.)
