Sumantra Sen brings a rare dual-lens perspective to global business—first as a corporate leader with Fortune 100 giants, where he specialized in startup incubation, collaborative value chain design, and cross-border expansion; and later as a mission-driven entrepreneur shaping innovative ecosystems at the intersection of technology, equity, and global sustainability.

As Founder and Managing Director of Transnational Business Solutions (TBS), he has spearheaded national-level industry development programs and transformative AI/ML implementation protocols—not from a technologist’s lens, but through a systems-leadership approach that unites stakeholders across public, private, and academic sectors.

His work spans diverse industries—healthcare, financial services, climate action, digital innovation, and pet wellness—and is deeply rooted in sustainable growth, human-centered governance, and inclusive opportunity creation across geographies from New York to New Delhi, Abuja to Remscheid ( Germany)
