From Learners To Leaders

From being passionate, self-taught coders to building a venture that sells artificial intelligence-based solutions to leading companies across the world, Abhinav and Raghav Aggarwal—the founders of Fluid AI—have come a long way. In conversation with MARWAR, they talk about their entrepreneurial journey, turning points and future plans.

Artificial intelligence (AI), which enables computer programmes and machines to think and learn, is at the forefront of transforming business processes across most sectors today. AI can help businesses develop completely new ways to interact with their customers, offer customers more intelligent products and service experiences, optimise processes, save costs and increase revenue. Little wonder then that more and more businesses are adopting AI-based solutions to maintain a competitive edge. And helping them do just that is Fluid AI, a Mumbai-based start-up that draws on AI to provide businesses with intuitive user experiences and data analytics.

Founded by brothers Abhinav (28) and Raghav Aggarwal (31), Fluid AI has clients across various sectors like banking, e-commerce, finance, government, health care, insurance, retail marketing, and others. Among its clients are Accenture, Axis Bank, Bank of America, Barclays Plc, Capgemini, Deloitte, Emirates NBD, Toyota and Vodafone, to mention a few. And all of these organisations are serviced by Fluid AI’s 55-member core team spread across its five offices in India (in Mumbai), USA (in Charlotte), Jamaica, the Netherlands and Mauritius. For a company that started from the Aggarwal’s home in 2012, Fluid AI has grown by leaps and bounds, currently selling its AI-based solutions across 10 countries.
