Redwood City, CA (June 4, 2025)
Ambient.ai, the leader in AI-powered computer vision intelligence for physical security, today announced the appointment of Alberto Farronato as its new Chief Marketing Officer (CMO). Farronato will lead global marketing strategy and execution as the company accelerates its go-to-market efforts and drives adoption across enterprise and critical infrastructure sectors.
Farronato brings over two decades of experience building and scaling high-growth technology companies at the intersection of artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and robotics. Prior to joining Ambient.ai, he held senior marketing leadership roles at VMware, Mulesoft, SignalFx, Skydio, and Oasis Security.
"Ambient.ai has been at the forefront, pioneering the AI-powered physical security category, and we've now reached a pivotal moment where AI's ability to interpret and understand video context objectively surpasses human capabilities," said Shikhar Shrestha, CEO and co-founder of Ambient.ai. “The addition of Alberto as our CMO is a crucial catalyst for our vision. He has a deep understanding of what it takes to build and position transformative enterprise platforms. His track record in emerging technology categories and his ability to translate complex innovation into compelling narratives will be instrumental as we scale into our next phase of growth."
Ambient.ai has developed the first Agentic AI system purpose-built for physical security. By combining computer vision, large language models (LLMs), IoT signals, and real-time context, the platform autonomously interprets human behavior and intent to prevent physical threats before they escalate. It is currently deployed in high-stakes environments such as data centers, corporate campuses, hospitals, and schools.
"I am incredibly excited to join Ambient.ai at such a pivotal moment for the company. Ambient is solving a real and urgent problem with breakthrough technology that’s already making an impact in the field,” said Alberto Farronato. “The opportunity to help scale a platform that blends mission-driven innovation with real-world value creation was incredibly compelling.”
Farronato joins Ambient.ai as the company continues to experience significant momentum. The physical security landscape is increasingly recognizing the limitations of human-centric models, with security operations teams often overwhelmed by false alerts and the sheer volume of video feeds. Ambient.ai's AI-powered platform addresses these challenges by providing proactive threat detection and reducing false positives, thereby improving operator efficiency and overall security posture for organizations.
