MUMBAI: LTIMindtree has brought a seasoned AI strategist into its top leadership, appointing Manoj Kothiyal as chief business officer and global head of AI. The move signals the company’s intent to put artificial intelligence firmly at the heart of its next growth chapter.

Kothiyal steps into the role after more than a decade at Boston Consulting Group, where he was a managing director and partner. Known for translating complex data science into real business results, he has worked across industries to deliver large-scale digital and AI transformations.

At LTIMindtree, Kothiyal will shape global business strategy while leading the company’s AI initiatives. His focus will be on helping enterprises move beyond experimentation and adopt AI in ways that are practical, responsible and scalable.

“I’m excited to share that I’ve joined LTIMindtree as Chief Business Officer and Global Head of AI,” Kothiyal said. “After 11 wonderful years at BCG, I’m looking forward to helping organisations build AI-first strategies that create meaningful business impact.”

During his time at BCG, Kothiyal played a key role in digital manufacturing and supply chain innovation. He also founded Snow AI, a next-generation analytics platform that uses machine learning and generative AI to help companies simulate scenarios, optimise supply chains and make faster decisions.

Earlier in his career, he held leadership roles at WNS and Absolutdata, where he built and scaled data science teams and delivered analytics programmes across global markets.

With Kothiyal on board, LTIMindtree is betting on experience, clarity and a touch of curiosity to turn AI ambition into everyday business value.
