About Garg
I help founders, CEOs, and growth-stage companies make stronger product, platform, AI, and scaling decisions. Through Innovatoin Catalysts LLC, I work as a Fractional CTO, AI strategist, and technology advisor at the intersection of business, architecture, execution, and scale. My focus is simple: improve the quality of the decisions that shape a company’s future — from roadmap and architecture to AI strategy, technical credibility, and scale readiness. I bring the perspective of an operator, entrepreneur, and investor-minded evaluator of risk, moat, and execution quality. That means I look beyond technology itself and focus on what drives real outcomes: customer value, execution speed, capital efficiency, and long-term advantage. My background includes 38+ years in software, 18+ years as an entrepreneur/operator, the Wharton CTO Program, and McCombs AI for Leaders. I am also building Innovatoin Catalysts Ventures, a micro-fund for early-stage AI-first startups. If you are building, scaling, or trying to use AI with real discipline, let’s connect.
