Pooja Aravalapalli is Co-Founder and Strategy Lead at Samanvi Technologies, where she leads strategy across the company’s AI, web and digital growth work.

She brings more than 13 years of experience in corporate environments, bridging technical engineering and strategic business management. That dual perspective keeps Samanvi’s work both technically sound and commercially focused, from the first conversation with a client to the plan the team delivers.

Pooja is an Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) graduate and holds both a Master of Science and an MBA from the United Kingdom.

Beyond Samanvi, Pooja is a Distinguished Toastmaster — the highest educational award in Toastmasters International — and a multilingual corporate emcee based in Hyderabad. With more than nine years of public speaking, she hosts leadership summits, town halls, tech conferences and award evenings in English, Hindi, Telugu and Tamil. Her speaking work is at sahasritha.com, and she presents Epics & Poojas, a video series on the stories and rituals behind India’s festivals, in English, Hindi and Telugu.

Together with Sreekanth, she leads Samanvi with a “perpetual student” mindset, keeping the team current with emerging AI and digital practice.
