InMobi founder Naveen Tewari says Glance is pursuing an AI-commerce opportunity with global ambitions. He argues founder-led companies willing to make rapid, high-risk bets will outperform management-run incumbents through the AI transition.

Why this matters

The leadership view extends InMobi's recent AI push, including plans for a $500M IPO, 15 AI ad formats and agentic buying aimed at challenging Google and Meta.

Leadership is steady at 914 signals in 90 days; QoQ change was not provided.
