Microsoft has reportedly appointed Indian-origin Vik Singh as the corporate vice president for its generative AI and enterprise product.
Most recently, Singh served as the chief executive officer and co-founder of Infer, a leading predictive sales and marketing platform. He is also an investor and advisor to many AI startups.
Previously, Singh was an entrepreneur in residence at Sutter Hill Ventures (SHV), where he was responsible for identifying ideas as well as evaluating early stage investments. Before that, he helped create and architect Yahoo! BOSS, an open search platform that runs over 1 billion queries a month (powering services like DuckDuckGo).
Singh has also worked at Google and Microsoft, helping ship Google Custom Search and Windows XP SP2 Wireless.
With 13 patents in the areas of search, social networking, systems infrastructure and data modeling, Singh’s passion for inventing earned him recognition in MIT’s Technology Review Top 35 under 35 Innovators list.
In his spare time, Singh helps design and teach computer science and entrepreneurship classes at UC Berkeley, from where he graduated with a Bachelor’s in Computer Science.
