Unlocking Value Podcast, episode twenty-six

Hari Sethalapathy and Venkata Subbarayudu Nori are two of the three co-founders of Winfo Solutions, a global Oracle consulting business that has grown from three people with no clients to more than 400 staff across a dozen countries in just 11 years.

Both spent years delivering major transformation programmes inside tier-one firms before deciding to create a consultancy shaped by their own values – one built on trust, outstanding service and genuine partnership with clients.

The conversation covers:

● How they won early work by doing projects the big firms could not.

● How their first major breakthrough came from a client who initially said they were too small.

● How their leadership approach and structures have evolved as the business has expanded.

● Their decision to bring in external board advice and how that has helped accelerate growth.

● How a mantra of discuss, decide and deliver has been central to their success.

● Their practical experience with agent-based automation and faster product development.

● How they are approaching AI governance, security and ethical controls as AI
becomes more central to the business.

For founders and senior leaders building professional services firms, this is an honest conversation with two ambitious co-founders who have built something many aspire to.
