Previously, Shukla served as the CTO of Koovs and now will be responsible for shaping Pursuite’s global technological vision and fostering new skills within the organisation tied to big data, analytics and machine learning.

“The process of procuring products and services to build an office is very archaic and is filled with multiple issues including cost and time unpredictability, quality and consistency of products, price transparency, governance and even product discovery. Hence, the applicability of a digital procurement platform like Pursuite for the workplace sector is immense," said Arsh Chaudhry, CEO of Space Matrix. 

Founded in 2001, Space Matrix is a digital enterprise and a design consultancy that specializes in workplace design.
