Kahan is a proven leader with nearly four decades of data science, worldwide business, and technology transformation experience across Microsoft and IBM. In 2021, John was named by DatatechVibe as one of the top 15 data professionals globally, transforming and redefining business and the industry.

Through his work with Microsoft, Kahan has leveraged large datasets to solve problems and help transform the company into a customer-driven paradigm.
