Raj Basotia.
Bangalore, India
I’m a marketing leader who likes to understand how things work—and then make them work better together.
Currently, I’m Director of Marketing Strategic Initiatives at Lyric, connecting positioning, analyst relations, customer proof, digital experiences and AI-enabled workflows.
Before that, I led competitive strategy at Anaplan, worked on executive storytelling at HighRadius, and built my research foundation at Gartner, with a chapter in campaign operations at American Express.
Jaipur roots. Bangalore base. Curious about technology, political documentaries, phone photography and a well-made watch.
