About Vinay Vishwanath

I\'m a strategy and operations leader with a passion for building brands, partnerships, and technology-driven strategies that connect. Over the past 15+ years, I’ve led multimillion-dollar account portfolios, marketing campaigns, loyalty programs, and product launches at companies like Samsung and Verizon; helping bring new innovations to market, drive growth, and lead experiential activations across tech, retail, entertainment, sports, and gaming.Most recently, I founded a mental health-focused startup leveraging AI to help people improve productivity, motivation, and emotional wellbeing; a fast-moving venture that sharpened how I approach go-to-market strategy, brand clarity, and storytelling for today’s mindful, results-driven audiences. It gave me firsthand insight into what it takes to build traction and engagement in a competitive, ever-evolving market.I’m deeply passionate about work that moves people, grows businesses, and creates lasting impact. Whether launching products, strengthening account relationships, activating partnerships, or guiding cross-functional teams from idea to execution, I thrive at the intersection of innovation and execution — and I’m always excited for what comes next.
