Dataminr appoints Murali Nemani as Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) to drive global growth and expansion across corporate and government markets

Dataminr, one of the world’s leading AI companies, announced that it has appointed Silicon Valley veteran Murali Nemani as the company’s chief marketing officer. Nemani brings nearly three decades of experience building go-to-market engines, launching and shaping disruptive technologies, and scaling high-growth AI startups and multi-billion dollar revenue enterprises. As CMO, Nemani will play a critical role in generating customer outcomes across government and corporate sectors, and driving broad market adoption of Dataminr’s real-time AI platform for discovering events, risks and critical information in public data.

As the world navigates one of the most tumultuous and destabilizing periods in modern history, Dataminr’s powerful AI platform is uniquely positioned to protect people and assets from real-time physical, cyber and digital threats. Driven by the historic number of elections taking place globally in 2024, a rise in geopolitical conflict, and increasing cyber-physical threats, Dataminr’s products are more critical today than ever before. With extensive global market experience living and working across Asia, Europe and North America, Nemani’s diverse background will help Dataminr capitalize on its unique global market growth opportunity.
