Enterprise AI services startup Hang Ten Systems, founded by former Infosys CEO Vishal Sikka, has raised $32 million in a seed funding round led by Mayfield, with participation from Aramco Ventures and a group of angel investors. The company will use the funds to expand its team and scale its enterprise AI deployments globally.
Hang Ten Systems, an enterprise AI services startup founded by former Infosys CEO and SAP executive board member Vishal Sikka, has raised $32 million (₹302 crore) in a seed funding round.
The round was led by Mayfield, with participation from Aramco Ventures, the venture capital arm of Saudi Aramco, along with a group of Silicon Valley angel investors.
Founded in Palo Alto, Hang Ten Systems helps large enterprises deploy artificial intelligence across business operations and software systems. The company focuses on building and operating enterprise software using AI-native approaches, including agentic code generation, reusable skills libraries, and domain-specific expertise.
According to the company, the fresh capital will be used to expand its team and scale its engagements with global enterprises.
Hang Ten Systems aims to reduce the cost and time required for software development, customization, integration, and maintenance by using AI-driven tools. The company also said it enables enterprises to adopt a continuous software operating model built on agentic code generation and reusable skills libraries.
In a LinkedIn post announcing the startup, Sikka said Hang Ten is already working with large enterprises, including Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy and Fresenius entities, to deploy AI across business operations. The company also said it is working with customers across industries such as Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy and Fresenius on AI-native project delivery.
Sikka said, “Every single enterprise will be transformed by AI. A few are already reaping massive benefits, building in days what used to take years. But most are stuck at the starting line, or worse, and the gap is widening every day.”
The startup also said Yahoo co-founder Jerry Yang has joined its board. It is backed by Mayfield, Aramco Ventures, and a group of Silicon Valley angel investors.
Sikka, who served as CEO and Managing Director of Infosys between 2014 and 2017, stepped down from the role later. In 2019, he founded AI software company Vianai Systems, where he served as founder and CEO until April 2026. He also serves on the supervisory board of BMW Group and has been a member of the board of directors of GSK since 2022.
