Hang Ten Systems announced it raised $32 million in seed funding to support team expansion and its work with global enterprise customers. The funding round was led by Mayfield, with a strategic investment from Aramco Ventures and participation from a group of angel investors.
Hang Ten Systems is an enterprise AI services company led by Dr. Vishal Sikka, Co-founder and CEO. Sikka previously served as CEO of Infosys and as an Executive Board Member at SAP, where he was responsible for products and technology.
The company helps large enterprises adopt AI to produce measurable business results. Hang Ten said many enterprises are still struggling to gain a significant advantage from AI and often take on additional cost and risk without realizing meaningful benefits. The company was created to help close that gap.
Hang Ten focuses on software that runs the business. The company said generative AI is changing the traditional model of adapting commercial off-the-shelf software to enterprise needs through configuration, customization, integration, and testing.
According to Hang Ten, AI code generation has reduced the marginal cost and timeline required to build advanced enterprise capabilities. The company’s operating model is designed around software that can be built, changed, and run continuously at a fraction of the traditional cost and time.
Hang Ten has specialized capabilities in enterprise transformations, finance, HR, and new product development. Its platform and service model are supported by an expert FDE Bench, a reusable skills library, and agentic code generation.
The company is already working with marquee customers across several industries, including Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy and Fresenius, on AI-native project delivery.
Hang Ten is also hiring across delivery, engineering, sales, and leadership roles as it scales its operations.
KEY QUOTES:
“Every single enterprise will be transformed by AI. A few are already reaping massive benefits, building in days what used to take years. But most are stuck at the starting line, or worse, and the gap is widening every day. We are building Hang Ten to close that gap, and help enterprises ride the AI wave.”
“We bring together the rarest combination — frontier AI expertise, decades of building the systems that enterprises actually run on, and the judgment to deliver real value when everything is changing at once. I am excited to be working closely with Mayfield, Aramco Ventures, and several renowned angel investors to help deliver on this promise at scale.”
Dr. Vishal Sikka, CEO and Founder of Hang Ten
“At Mayfield, we invest in people first, and Vishal is one of the rare leaders who can make enterprise AI actually work. We backed Vishal from inception because he has done this before running products and technology at SAP and leading Infosys as CEO. Within a few years, the gap between enterprises that use AI to real advantage and those that don’t will define entire industries. Hang Ten is focused on enterprise transformations to put companies on the right side of that line.”
Navin Chaddha, Managing Partner at Mayfield
“Deployment of AI at enterprise scale is fast becoming the biggest challenge and opportunity of our time. We are proud to join Vishal and the Hang Ten team in their seed round to go after this generational opportunity. Their combination of Frontier AI experience, decades of delivering enterprise solutions at scale, and deep enterprise relationships worldwide is rare, and is what it will take to deliver on the promise of Enterprise AI.”
Mahdi Aladel, CEO of Aramco Ventures
“Every enterprise I know is looking for sound trusted guidance on AI and help with dramatically improving major operational programs. I am very excited to see Vishal and his team tackle this challenge with Hang Ten. We at SGRE are delighted to work with Hang Ten on several strategic initiatives.”
Vinod Philip, CEO of Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy
