Vijay Patel: a digital leader who builds AI products hands-on
Fifteen years leading digital: co-founding an agency, later acquired by Krow Group, part of the team that took Sportradar through its IPO, a charity built from zero. The last two-plus years have been about building AI products hands-on, every day. Native apps, agents, SaaS and automations. Plus 1-1 AI working sessions for senior leaders.
