The company is led by CEO and Chairman Shahraab Ahmad, the founder and former CIO of Decca Capital, and President and Director Burt Jordan, who previously worked at Ford for over two decades, most recently serving as VP of Global Purchasing Operations and Supply Chain Sustainability. The company plans to target the next-generation mobility sector, focusing on businesses with large markets, high growth, and ESG values, among other characteristics.
