About

About Nilaad

Nilaad is a data, platform, analytics and AI consulting firm for scale-ups and mid-market companies. Our consultants work from Europe and Asia.

The name

Nilaad joins the names of our founder's two children. One means moon and the other means sun. Our mark is a disc rising over a horizon. On a light ground it is the sun, on a dark one the moon, and every page here opens with one and closes with the other.

Why we exist

Our view is that data work fails at adoption far more often than at technology. A platform can be well built and still change nothing, because the foundations under it were skipped or nobody was asked to use it. Nilaad exists to fix the foundations and then scale what works.

Founder

Solaiyappan Shanmugam
