Prossima AI appoints Metamorph CEO Satyandre Yadav as media advisor
Move signals push for global storytelling as startup sharpens AI positioning
NEW DELHI: Prossima AI has appointed Satyandre Yadav, chief executive of Metamorph, as its media advisor, in a move aimed at strengthening its global communications and brand positioning.
The appointment comes as the government-recognised AI startup looks to sharpen its narrative in an increasingly competitive and fast-evolving sector. Yadav will lead media strategy, narrative development and global outreach, helping Prossima AI better articulate its technological capabilities and long-term vision across key markets.
The development also marks a strategic expansion for Metamorph, which is formally entering the AI communications space after building expertise across Web3, fintech and emerging technologies.
The partnership follows a strong momentum phase for Prossima AI. The company was recently named among the top five AI startups in India and received a seed grant at the India AI Impact Summit 2026. The recognition was part of a multi-stakeholder collaboration involving the Government of India, Meta, 1M1B, AICTE and YuvAI.
“Effective communication is critical in the AI space, where clarity and trust are paramount,” said Prossima AI cofounder Atulya Bhatt. “Satyandre’s experience in building strong narratives for disruptive technologies makes him an ideal partner as we scale our presence.”
“Prossima AI is building at the intersection of innovation and real-world application,” said Metamorph ceo Satyandre Yadav. “We see immense potential in shaping its narrative as AI continues to redefine industries globally. This partnership also represents a significant milestone for Metamorph as we expand our footprint into AI-led communications.”
As artificial intelligence adoption accelerates across sectors, the need for clear and credible storytelling is becoming just as important as the technology itself. Prossima AI’s latest move reflects this shift, signalling how startups are increasingly investing in narrative alongside innovation to stand out in a crowded market.

Magellanic Cloud names Syed Ameeruddin CEO of e-surveillance arm
Keeping a sharper eye on the future, Magellanic Cloud is putting a seasoned watcher in charge.
MUMBAI – Magellanic Cloud Ltd. has elevated Syed Ameeruddin as Chief Executive Officer of its e-surveillance business, bringing its iVIS and Provigil operations under a unified leadership to accelerate growth in intelligent monitoring and infrastructure solutions.
Ameeruddin, a nearly two-decade veteran of the company, steps into the role after leading the e-surveillance vertical. His career trajectory—from Business Development Manager to the top of the vertical—reflects a steady climb built on operational depth, client engagement, and strategic execution across multiple subsidiaries.
Over the years, he has played a central role in expanding the company’s footprint, strengthening client relationships, and streamlining operations. He has also been instrumental in integrating acquisitions, helping align new businesses with Magellanic Cloud’s long-term strategy while stabilising performance across diverse domains.
More recently, Ameeruddin has contributed to securing key mandates spanning railways, the National Highways Authority of India, and the BFSI sector—wins that have bolstered the company’s order book and deepened its presence in critical infrastructure.
Commenting on the move, Joseph Sudheer Thumma said Ameeruddin’s leadership has been “pivotal in shaping the e-surveillance business,” citing his ability to drive growth, build teams, and deliver strategic wins as key to the company’s journey. His elevation, Thumma added, is expected to further accelerate expansion in AI-driven surveillance and infrastructure solutions.
The transition comes as demand surges for AI-enabled monitoring, centralised command systems, and large-scale deployments across mission-critical environments. Magellanic Cloud’s e-surveillance segment—anchored by iVIS and Provigil—has emerged as a significant growth engine, delivering projects across banking, transport, highways, and public infrastructure.
In his new role, Ameeruddin will focus on scaling platform capabilities, expanding deployments in complex environments, and developing integrated solutions that enhance real-time intelligence and operational resilience. He will continue to serve as Chief Operating Officer of the company alongside his new responsibilities.
With this leadership shift, Magellanic Cloud is doubling down on its ambition to stay ahead in India’s rapidly evolving surveillance ecosystem—where seeing, increasingly, is not just believing, but predicting.
