About
Jyoti Bansal is a multi-unicorn founder, serial technology entrepreneur and a passionate mentor and investor in the tech space. He is currently the founder and CEO of two high-growth technology companies: Harness, a platform to automate software delivery processes valued at $3.7 billion as of 2022, and Traceable AI — a cybersecurity platform for securing software applications.
Both of these companies reflect Jyoti’s passionate belief that software can change the world for the better and build on the success of his first company, AppDynamics, which was acquired by Cisco for $3.7 billion in 2017. Founded in 2008, AppDynamics is an application intelligence company that provides enterprises with real-time insights into application performance. Jyoti led the company as founder and CEO for the first eight years, and as founder & Chairman for the last year until its acquisition by Cisco.
In addition to running Harness and Traceable, Jyoti is highly involved in developing the next generation of technology companies through mentorship and investment. In 2017 he launched BIG Labs, a startup accelerator aimed at solving extraordinarily difficult technology problems, and in 2018 co-founded VC firm Unusual Ventures with John Vrionis. The firm currently has more than $1 billion under management.
Jyoti has also been the recipient of many leadership awards, including Forbes’ “Best Cloud Computing CEO to Work For”, “Best CEO” by San Francisco Business Times, and Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year for Northern California.
Jyoti received his BS in Computer Science from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. He is a prolific inventor and has more than 25 US patents under his name.
