Ajay Gupta is the Founder and CEO of Stirista. He launched the company in 2009 after seeing a growing disconnect between the data marketers were using and the decisions they needed to make. Since then, he has led Stirista’s evolution into a global marketing solutions business supporting brands and agencies across email, CTV, and digital channels.
Under Ajay’s leadership, Stirista has achieved strong and sustained growth through strategic acquisitions, continued platform expansion, and a disciplined approach to building the business independently. That work has earned regular recognition including Deloitte Technology Fast 500, Inc. 5000, Ad Age Best Places to Work, USPAACC Fast 100 Asian American Business awards, and EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2026 Gulf South finalist recognition.
