The person behind AI.Prof
Forbes
30 Under 30 · 2021
Sandeep Konam
Founder & Chairman, AI.Prof · Co-Founder, Abridge · Founder & Chairman, KONAM Foundation
Born and raised in rural Nalgonda, Telangana — Sandeep is living proof that where you start doesn't have to determine where you go. He trained in Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University, co-founded Abridge (an AI healthcare unicorn valued at $5.3B and featured in the NYT, Forbes, and WSJ), and was named to Forbes' 2021 30 Under 30 in Healthcare.
He has delivered guest lectures at CMU, Stanford, and UPitt. His writing has appeared in Quartz, Fast Company, and Fierce Healthcare. He runs the KONAM Foundation to accelerate sustainable development through technology across India and Africa.
With AI.Prof, Sandeep is bringing that experience back to India to rethink how companies discover talent, universities manage placements, and the two work together. His vision goes beyond connecting talent with opportunity — it's about raising the bar for engineering talent and building a hiring ecosystem that gives every graduate a better chance to succeed.
“India has never had a shortage of brilliant engineers. It's had a shortage of systems that could find them. That ends now.”
Sandeep Konam, Founder & Chairman, AI.Prof
The foundation & the journey
From Nalgonda to Carnegie Mellon, and back to build for India.
At CMU's Robotics Institute, Sandeep worked at the bleeding edge of AI before co-founding what is now a multi-billion dollar healthcare AI company in the US. But instead of staying in the USA, he brought that enterprise-grade rigor back to his roots. Today, he is partnering with state leadership to build the exact sovereign tech infrastructure the next generation needs.

As seen in
KONAM Foundation
Building for India means building for everyone it forgets.
Before AI.Prof, Sandeep founded the KONAM Foundation to democratize technology for underserved communities. His work spanned from deploying the AI-powered ‘Krishi’ app to help indigenous farmers optimize yields, to upskilling youth across Nalgonda and Africa in critical AI and digital skills.
The philosophy behind it all
“Brilliance is evenly distributed, but infrastructure is not.”
Let talent be found for what it can do.
Whether you hire engineers or place them, AI.Prof helps the right people find each other.
