Swetank Shekhar Biography :

Swetank Shekhar, founder of ISS Retail, established an office in Raleigh, N.C. in 1993. In January 1997, Shekhar brought Mr. Jenkins from Post Software International to manage the company's day-to-day operation while he devoted his time, as CTO, providing technical / product directions. Under the direction of Shekhar, ISS Retail recognized the benefits of advancement in web technologies and adopted it in Retail to help reduce a number of parallel systems as well as reduce system integration cost. ISS Retail takes pride in being first to rollout a XML/XSLT based POS with a major retailer. These achievements lead to ISS Retail receiving the Executive Excellence Award in 1996 and 1999 from a tier-one Retailer and Vendor Award of Excellence in the year 2000. Anticipating the need of a changing IT environment, Shekhar became the CSO to help define vision as well as strategic direction for the company. In addition, Shekhar is the interim CEO to help transition the company from a small company to a medium-sized global institution. Shekhar received his Masters in Artificial Intelligence from Indian Institute of Technology at Kanpur and then began his career in India, developing an X400-based messaging system for Pacific Bell. In 1988, Shekhar moved to Boston where he worked as a consultant in the telecommunications arena before joining Post Software International (PSI) in 1989 in Wake Forest, N.C. where he was in charge of systems architecture and development. By leveraging his knowledge from AI, Shekhar introduced heuristic based self-healing concepts in ISS Retail products to achieve unprecedented reliability and stability.
