Introduction of the Speaker

It is a privilege to introduce Mr. Satish Agarwal, a seasoned AI and Data Science leader with over 15 years of deep industry experience in deploying production-grade AI systems for large-scale manufacturing and industrial enterprises.

Mr. Agarwal currently serves as Senior Manager – AI at EY, and has previously held leadership roles at Affine.ai, Tata Steel, and GE Healthcare, where he led and delivered high-impact Industrial AI programs across automotive, metals, mining, healthcare, and manufacturing domains. His career is a strong embodiment of Industry 5.0 principles, where AI systems work symbiotically with human expertise to enhance decision-making, productivity, and sustainability.

At Tata Steel, Mr. Agarwal spearheaded multiple human-in-the-loop AI initiatives, delivering a cumulative business impact exceeding ₹100 crore, through applications such as manufacturing process optimization, AI-driven quality inspection, anomaly detection, financial forecasting, and intelligent decision-support systems. These solutions were not just automated models, but collaborative AI systems designed to augment engineers, operators, and business leaders.

At Affine.ai, he led global AI programs for manufacturing clients across 40+ countries, architecting MLOps-enabled, cloud-native AI platforms on Azure and Databricks. His work in Digital Twins, GenAI-powered reporting, and Agentic AI solutions demonstrates how next-generation AI can coexist with human judgment to reduce manual effort, improve reliability, and accelerate industrial transformation.

Mr. Agarwal’s expertise spans Industrial Analytics, Human-in-the-Loop AI, Digital Twins, GenAI, Agentic AI, and Manufacturing Optimization, making him a strong voice on how Industry 5.0 shifts the focus from pure automation to intelligent collaboration between humans and machines.

With a unique blend of engineering rigor, business leadership, and hands-on AI deployment, he brings a practical, value-realization perspective on implementing Symbiotic AI in real industrial environments—not just in theory, but at scale.

We are delighted to have him share his insights today on the Old vs. New paradigm of AI - Industrial Transformation. Please join me in giving a warm welcome to Mr. Satish Agarwal.
