ConnXAI announced the formation of its Advisory Coalition, a strategic body of industry leaders guiding the company’s growth across public and private sectors. The coalition includes distinguished experts in transportation, infrastructure, cybersecurity, and public-private partnerships—each bringing decades of leadership and deep relationships across mission-critical industries.
The announcement follows a year of strong momentum for ConnXAI, including expanded partnerships with Cisco and major deployments that are driving safer, smarter, and more sustainable infrastructure.

Leslie Richards, Professor of Practice at the University of Pennsylvania, former SEPTA CEO & General Manager and former PennDOT Secretary, joins the coalition with a focus on modernizing transit systems. “Agencies are under immense pressure to do more with fewer resources. ConnXAI unifies CAD/AVL, fare, CCTV, and SCADA into one intelligent platform, helping agencies cut unplanned downtime by up to 30% while boosting on-time performance. That kind of impact is why I’m excited to support ConnXAI’s growth,” said Richards.
Randy Iwasaki, former Caltrans Director, CCTA Executive Director and AWS Transportation lead, said: “Transit is more than infrastructure — it’s about people arriving home safely every day. I joined the ConnXAI board because their Connected Transit as-a-Service (CTaaS) platform directly addresses safety needs, aligning with PTASP and Vision Zero while improving uptime for agencies nationwide.”
Emille Williams, former COTA CEO and SEPTA Chief Engineering Officer, added: “Modernizing transit requires a comprehensive, AI-powered, and integrated strategy to enhance safety, reliability, and the rider experience. ConnXAI is uniquely positioned to lead that transformation.”

ConnXAI’s CTaaS model delivers measurable ROI while unlocking new funding opportunities for agencies. I look forward to helping ConnXAI scale this impact across the U.S.”
ConnXAI executives welcomed the formation of the coalition as a milestone in the company’s evolution.
“Transformation in mission-critical industries demands more than technology — it requires trusted collaboration and visionary leadership,” said Indrajit Ghosh, CEO of ConnXAI.
“Together, we will drive safer operations, greater uptime, and long-term resilience for our customers,” added Steve Pitchon, ConnXAI Chief Client Officer.
“This coalition marks a pivotal moment in ConnXAI’s evolution. Their guidance will empower ConnXAI to deliver next-gen AI solutions and forge trusted partnerships at scale,” said Amar Reddy, Chairman of the Board.
