S anjit Biswas is an American technology entrepreneur who is the co-founder and CEO of Samsara, a company that has become a leader in the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) sector. Biswas demonstrated his entrepreneurial flair early on. While studying computer science at Stanford University, he co-founded his first major company, Meraki, in 2006 with his Ph.D. advisor and fellow student John Bicket. Meraki, which focused on providing cloud-managed Wi-Fi and networking solutions, was born out of their academic research and quickly gained commercial traction.

In 2012, Meraki was acquired by Cisco for a remarkable $1.2 billion, a testament to the value and innovation of the platform they had built. After staying on at Cisco for a couple of years, Biswas and Bicket left in 2015 to seek their next challenge. They co-founded Samsara with the goal of bringing the benefits of IoT technology to industries like transportation, logistics, and construction. Samsara develops hardware (sensors, cameras) and software that allow companies to collect and analyze data from their physical operations, improving safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Under Biswas's leadership as CEO, Samsara has experienced rapid growth, gone public, and established itself as a pivotal player in the digital transformation of industrial operations.
