NEW YORK, Nov. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Indicium and Mesh-AI announce their integration to form Indicium AI, creating one of the world’s leading data and AI consultancies. Backed by Columbia Capital, the combined organization brings together deep expertise, cutting-edge technology, and world-class talent to accelerate enterprise transformation across the Americas, Europe, and Latin America (LATAM). Both brands will continue to operate independently until Q1 2026, when the new brand, Indicium AI, will be officially launched and business operations will be integrated.
A Strategic Partnership for the Future of Enterprise AI
The union brings together two leaders at the forefront of data and AI innovation with clients such as National Grid, Experian, PepsiCo, and Roche. Both companies drive enterprise transformation through AI and serve enterprises across Financial Services, Energy & Utilities, Pharma, Retail & CPG, Manufacturing, and Media, among others. Indicium’s expertise in data modernization and AI execution joins Mesh-AI’s strategic capability in enterprise data and AI. Together, they deliver end-to-end solutions that help Fortune 500 and global enterprises unlock measurable value from data and AI.

Together, we seek to create an unparalleled suite of solutions to enable enterprises to accelerate data and AI transformation on a global scale.”
Kelly Manthey has been appointed Global CEO of Indicium AI. A proven leader with over 25 years of experience, she previously served as CEO of Kin + Carta, where she led the global consultancy and operations across multiple markets. Her engineering background and track record in international growth positions her to lead the next chapter of this global data and AI powerhouse.
