Navin Thadani is the Founder and CEO of Evinced, the leading AI-powered digital accessibility testing company based in Palo Alto, California. A serial entrepreneur with two prior successful exits (Qumranet to Red Hat and Ravello Systems to Oracle), he co-founded Evinced in 2018 with a mission to make the web and mobile apps accessible to the 1.3 billion people worldwide living with disabilities. Under his leadership, Evinced has raised $112 million across three funding rounds, built a 130-person team, and become the only pure technology play in the enterprise accessibility market, serving clients including five of the ten largest media companies in the US and UK, and financial institutions collectively managing $26 trillion in assets.
