Mitesh Agarwal is a distinguished technology and Go-To-Market leader and the Managing Director of AI, Data & API for Google Cloud in Asia Pacific. Based in Singapore, he spearheads the APAC region's AI, Analytics, Database, Apigee, and Looker sales and customer engineering teams.
Operating as a crucial translator between complex technical possibilities and hard business realities, Mitesh empowers organizations to accelerate their digital transformation and drive tangible ROI.
With over 28 years of experience in the trenches of the tech industry, Mitesh has guided businesses through every major evolution—from the internet and mobile revolutions to cloud computing to blockchain and the current AI era. Because he has played on almost every side of the pitch—spanningdeep technology, consultative presales, strategic sales, and go-to-market execution—he possesses a rare ability to not just sell a vision, but architect it and see it through from the first whiteboard session to full-scale adoption.
Alongside his leadership at Google Cloud, Mitesh serves as a Senior Technology & AI Advisor to Warburg Pincus for the JAPAC region, decoding the rapidly shifting tech landscape to inform smarter private equity investments.
Before joining Google, Mitesh dedicated 18 years to Oracle and Sun Microsystems. His deliberate progression from hands-on engineering to quota-carrying leadership culminated in impactful roles, including CTO for Oracle India and Vice President of Global Key & Lead Accounts.
Mitesh is a firm believer in adaptability, echoing Darwin's mantra: “It is not the strongest company that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” This philosophy shapes his leadership ethos, driving him to build not just high-performing teams, but a thriving ecosystem ofcommitment, sustainability, and continuous growth.
When he isn't connecting professional dots in the boardroom, he is usually connecting much more obscure ones as an avid corporate quizzer and quizmaster.
