Neat CEO Javed Khan on Revolutionizing Hybrid Meetings with AI-Powered Collaboration

Javed Khan, CEO of Neat, is a seasoned technology executive with over two decades of experience in leadership roles. He has held positions at companies such as Cisco and Aptiv, where he led initiatives in collaboration, intelligent systems, edge computing, and cybersecurity.

Khan became the CEO of Neat in March 2026 after serving as Executive Vice President and President of Intelligent Systems at Aptiv. He oversees a team that has developed an AI-powered distributed architecture for video collaboration devices designed to make hybrid meetings more natural and easier to manage.

Neat's portfolio combines purpose-built cameras, microphones, displays, audio systems, and processing hardware with AI capabilities used for functions such as intelligent framing, audio optimization, and adaptive meeting experiences. The company focuses on bringing more intelligence directly into the meeting room while offering organizations hardware that can be deployed and managed across spaces ranging from small focus rooms to large conference environments.

Khan believes that the physical meeting space is becoming strategically important again after years of software-first collaboration trends. With AI capabilities now residing in the room, it can act like a hub for collaboration beyond just meetings.
