Hi, my name isShyam Duraiswami.

I’m Co-Founder and CEO of Provably.

My work sits at the intersection of verifiable data and AI. As an architect and builder, my core belief is that verifiable data will become foundational infrastructure for reliable and secure distributed systems.

Previously, I spent 15 years at IBM UK as a developer and architect, building PLM systems for Formula 1, aerospace, and defence clients. Later, my work on emerging business models for autonomous systems led me into startups focused on verifiable data and blockchain infrastructure.

My academic background is in Computer Systems Engineering and Product Lifecycle Management.
