Umar Alam Email & Phone Number

Umar Alam is a ceo & founder at CR8 Ai based in London, England, United Kingdom, Europe. Second-time founder building CR8 AI — the AI infrastructure for product manufacturing. We help brands go from idea to production-ready prototype with real materials, real costs, and real feasibility from day one. I’ve spent 16+ years leading innovation at enterprise CPG like BAT, Unilever across USA, UK, Europe, Africa, and APAC — launching global platforms (Dove Real Beauty), turning around failing businesses (Russia, Turkey, South Africa), and building teams across 30+ markets. I’ve seen firsthand how broken the product development process is — teams waste months on ideas that can’t be made or scaled. That’s the problem I’ve spent the last 5 years solving. First, through CTT — my B2B innovation services company trusted by Unilever, Danone, Coca Cola and J&J. Then, through ZOD — where we use AI to turn inspiration into production with precision and speed. If you’re building the future of physical product manufacturing, or want to collaborate on AI x execution, I’d love to connect.
