Ideas into actionA new chapter with XNEEV

Built in industry.
Focused on
what comes next.

The most valuable experience is the kind you can put to work for someone else.

My journey has been shaped by railway signalling, sensing technologies and safety-critical infrastructure—and by the people who turn complex technology into dependable, real-world solutions.

A defining chapter was establishing and growing Frauscher’s India operations: from entering the market to building a base for manufacturing, engineering and innovation, serving Indian Railways, metro systems and global EPC partners.

Today, as a strategic advisor, my focus spans technology direction, India strategy, governance and leadership mentoring. Through XNEEV, I’m bringing that practical perspective to founders building their next chapter.
