Sanjay Shah is the Founder of Vistex and serves as its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Architect. Sanjay has been instrumental in creating an entirely new category of business software called “Go-to-Market” programs and has charted a visionary path for Vistex that transcends the “business as usual” mindset.
In 2012, Sanjay Shah established the Vistex Foundation. Its mission has been to help those in need to overcome barriers to success, specifically by supporting work in the areas of health, education, and basic needs. The foundation has supported projects in the developing world and in some of the more underserved areas of the US. From supporting technology initiatives in schools to building clinics and hospitals in places like Chiapas, MX; Kono, Sierra Leone; and Bihar, India, the foundation has sought to give back where the impact could be life changing. Sanjay also launched Endeavor, a corporate social responsibility initiative at Vistex that supported company associates across the globe in their charitable efforts. During Covid, he launched the “Close to Home” initiative that made employees the eyes and ears of Vistex’ corporate giving.
Sanjay’s efforts to increase his philanthropic giving while also instilling a spirit of giving back at his company has not just increased donations and volunteer hours among associates but has led to employees taking leadership roles in organizations, in educational initiatives and in social innovation projects.
