Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], August 18: Sonata Software (NSE: SONATSOFTW) (BSE: 532221) today announced the appointment of Hariprasad Rebala (Hari) as Chief AI Officer. Appointment strengthens Sonata's AI leadership as the company accelerates its transformation into an AI-native enterprise.

In his role, Hari will lead Sonata's end-to-end AI-led business transformation, shaping and executing the company's AI strategy across offerings, service delivery, platforms, capabilities, ecosystem, and partnerships. His focus will be on driving AI-led business outcomes and AI-native delivery, helping enterprises translate AI adoption into enterprise velocity and measurable business value.

Hari brings more than three decades of experience spanning IT services, enterprise technology and the startup ecosystem. Most recently, he served as Chief of AI Solutions and Growth at a deep-tech AI startup, and earlier co-founded Forfend, where he helped build IoT and conversational AI platforms. He has also held senior leadership roles at (erstwhile) Mindtree, Capgemini, and Wipro, where he scaled businesses, built industry practices and led large transformation programs, particularly across Banking and Financial Services.

Sonata brings together AI engineering and modernization capabilities, deep industry expertise and strategic technology partnerships to help clients make that shift at scale. My focus will be on building differentiated AI capabilities and platforms with our customers and partners, turning AI investments into measurable business outcomes and sustained competitive advantage."

This appointment is part of Sonata's broader strategy to embed AI across its engineering, platforms, delivery model and client solutions.
