The award commended him for outstanding contributions towards the IT organisation and the broader ecosystem.

A non-profit community of CIOs and IT leaders, the Global CIO Forum facilitates networking, sharing of best practices and executive development. It endeavours to enable CIOs and IT executives to build a vendor-neutral community to exchange ideas and best practices. The Forum’s awards typically highlight the importance of visionary leadership and strategic technology adoption in today’s rapidly evolving business landscape. Forum events offer sessions such as workshops, discussions, and social events that allow attendees to network and exchange ideas, tackle challenges and prepare their businesses for the future. 

Speaking on the occasion, Amit Chaulkar, who is passionate about AI and robotics, said, “I am honoured to work with some amazing colleagues every day and this award is a testament to their hard work, dedication and collaboration in adopting cutting-edge technology that benefits users.
