Stardog has announced the promotion of Navin Sharma to Chief Product Officer, reinforcing the company’s leadership in powering enterprise AI through its semantic AI platform. The promotion reflects Stardog’s momentum as enterprises accelerate investment in agentic AI systems that require trusted, contextual data foundations to operate reliably in complex, mission-critical environments.
Sharma has been instrumental in expanding Stardog’s capabilities across knowledge graphs, data integration, and generative AI, delivering a unified Semantic AI platform that enables organizations to connect siloed data while maintaining governance, explainability, and control. In his new role, he will lead global product strategy and execution as the company defines what it calls a new category of enterprise software: Semantic AI Infrastructure for the Agentic Enterprise — a layer that sits between fragmented enterprise data and AI systems, providing the contextual foundation required for agents to operate at scale. Stardog is trusted by organizations including NASA, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Raytheon, and its platform is built on World Wide Web Consortium open standards.
Sharma is a seasoned enterprise software executive with a track record of building and scaling business-to-business data and AI products, translating emerging technologies into commercially successful offerings aligned with customer and market needs. He is recognized for combining technical depth with user-centered product leadership and for guiding teams through periods of growth and transformation.
