◆ About Hitesh
Hitesh is Singapore's FDE Forward Deployed Engineering Trainer — Asia-Pacific's most trusted expert for enterprise AI deployment
Hitesh Motwani has spent 17+ years as a cross-industry AI deployment practitioner with significant Asia-Pacific delivery including Singapore’s financial services, government technology, and regional headquarters ecosystem. His FDE training methodology is built for Singapore’s unique enterprise context: MAS-regulated BFSI deployment, GovTech’s Smart Nation initiatives, and the regional headquarters of global AI companies from Palantir to Salesforce that use Singapore as their APAC deployment base.
His cross-sector practitioner roots — HDFC Bank, HSBC (with APAC operations), and DSP BlackRock in BFSI; Ogilvy and Rediffusion Y&R in advertising, including delivery to APAC regional clients — give him the institutional vocabulary Singapore’s MAS-regulated financial sector, GovTech teams, and regional enterprise leaders immediately recognise. He has delivered FDE training to Singapore-based GCCs and regional headquarters of organisations across the APAC corridor.
Today, as Founder & Lead Trainer at Skillopedia, he has trained 2,00,000+ professionals across 16+ countries including Singapore and APAC, serves as visiting faculty at 9 IIMs and the University of London, and authored Generative AI 360° (ZebraLearn, 2025).
