Mr. B.G. Mahesh
Co-founder of Sahamati
Data currently exists in silos and can’t be used effectively by individuals or businesses. This initiative is bringing everyone together to enable data sharing, fostering innovation and bringing more valuable products and services for consumers and businesses.
Certification is a key enabler, protecting the integrity of the space, the APIs it relies on and ensuring the right parties are involved.
