The keynote address during the kickoff was delivered by Navin Goel, Chief Executive Officer.

In his address on AI and Its Impact of IT Staffing, praised the contributions of the Indian American IT leaders. “You have contributed to the transformation, sustainability and the growth in America/ I can assure you, if you were not there, the GDP would probably go back by half a percent in United States, and we would not have had all the might of the software engineering that today sustains us.”

Referring to the artificial intelligence, Goel told the ITServe leaders, “If you all look at our history, our clients are as clueless as we may feel helpless. And that means, there is a great opportunity to help them navigate the AI world, which means an incredible consulting opportunity, and that’s what we have to do. But there is a skill issue that I would definitely bring to the table, that the talent base of the past, the workforce that gave us the quantitative edge in application development, is no longer as desirable. We need people who are smarter with algorithms, scalability, depth of algorithms, and also multi-disciplinary. So these domain-based models are where the investment is going on. And people who can do that need to have the core skills, but also knowledge of the domain.”

While proposing Vote of Thanks, Subrahmanyam Osuru said, “My Core Team deserves special accolades for their tireless efforts; this achievement would not have been possible without their collective expertise and commitment. ITServe Alliance is thrilled to unlock new opportunities and ignite your success at Synergy 2025.”
