Announcement - Yappes Global Advisory Council

Yappes Establishes Global Advisory Council to Accelerate Enterprise API Innovation and Global Growth 

Senior technology and business leaders from the United States, Singapore and India join Yappes to help shape the next generation of secure, AI-ready API infrastructure for global enterprises. 

Mysuru, India — Yappes, an enterprise software company redefining how organizations manage, secure, govern and monetize APIs, today announced the establishment of its Global Advisory Council, a strategic initiative that brings together internationally recognized technology and business leaders to help guide the company's next phase of growth, innovation and global expansion. 

The Council comprises senior executives from the United States, Singapore and India with decades of leadership experience across some of the world's largest enterprises. Collectively, they have led global digital transformation initiatives, enterprise architecture programmes, cybersecurity strategies, and technology organizations across multiple industries. Each member was invited following extensive discussions regarding Yappes' technology, market opportunity, and long-term vision. Their decision to join Yappes reflects confidence in the company's technology, leadership, and long-term vision. 

The establishment of the Global Advisory Council marks an important milestone in Yappes' evolution as it continues to expand customer deployments, strengthen strategic partnerships and deepen engagement with enterprise organizations across India and international markets. It also reinforces the company's commitment to helping enterprises navigate an increasingly interconnected, AI-driven world where security, governance and operational resilience have become strategic imperatives. 

"APIs have become the connective tissue of the digital economy and the foundation upon which AI-powered enterprises are being built," said Madhusudhan Jain, Chief Executive Officer of Yappes. 

"As organizations face increasing demands around security, governance and operational resilience, they need platforms that simplify complexity without compromising control. 

The caliber of leaders joining our Global Advisory Council is a strong endorsement of both our vision and our execution. Their collective experience will help shape our product strategy, strengthen customer engagement and accelerate our global expansion as we continue building one of the industry's most comprehensive platforms for API management, security, governance, monetization and lifecycle management." 

Yappes helps enterprises simplify increasingly fragmented API environments through a single control plane that unifies API management, security, governance, observability, monetization and lifecycle management. Built on Zero Trust principles, the platform enables organizations to strengthen security, improve operational resilience, and accelerate digital transformation while reducing architectural complexity. Designed for deployment across public cloud, private cloud and on-premises environments, Yappes enables enterprises to retain complete control over their API ecosystems while reducing vendor sprawl and preparing for the next generation of AI-enabled applications. 

Offering an early perspective on the significance of the platform, John Reese, Chairman of SignalBridge Wealth and former Fortune 500 Director of Strategic and Technical Planning, said: 

"Single sign-on once took dozens of separate enterprise logins and made them one coherent layer—that's the same kind of breakthrough I see in Yappes. 

Even within a single vendor's portfolio—whether IBM, AWS or Google—enterprises typically need several different products, each with its own management console, to approximate what Yappes delivers as a unified platform. 

I've seen this cycle before: tools multiply until the sprawl becomes unbearable, and most fixes just paint a single dashboard over five machines that are still running separately underneath, each enforcing its own rules. A real structural fix is rare enough that I've committed to invest in the company, not just advise it." 

The formation of the Global Advisory Council reflects Yappes' strategy of combining deep product innovation with experienced global leadership as it expands its presence across enterprise and regulated industries. 

Additional members of the Global Advisory Council will be introduced over the coming weeks, together with their perspectives on enterprise technology, AI, cybersecurity, and the evolving role of APIs in modern digital infrastructure.
