I’m Sameer Dhingra, an operator, advisor, and technologist with a deep focus on Retail & Consumer, technology and innovation across Asia.

Over the past few decades, I’ve worked with leading retailers, consumer brands and technology companies to help them scale and leverage technology to drive measurable impact. Currently, I lead the Retail & Consumer domain at Google Cloud across Asia Pacific & Japan.

This is where I share perspectives on technology innovation from an industry lens- decoding whats next, why it matters and what to do about it.

Increasingly, that includes AI: where it creates real business value, how it moves from possibility into production, and how it may change the way retailers and consumer businesses operate.

But the canvas is broader than AI.

You’ll find:

• Perspectives on what’s changing in Retail & Consumer, technology and digital platforms

• Perspectives on AI, emerging technology and their real-world applications

• Field notes from working with businesses across Asia

• Frameworks for digital value creation and execution across markets

• Periodic scan of signals from across Asia’s Retail & Consumer landscape.

I write for operators, founders, and investors building and scaling in Asia’s retail and consumer ecosystem.

All views are mine. Hopefully, some of them will be useful to you too.
