Hriday Gabhawalla is a rising professional in business process solutions, currently working at Deloitte in India, where he leverages his expertise to drive efficiency and innovation in operational workflows. Holding a commerce background from Narsee Monjee College of Commerce & Economics and pursuing the globally recognized ACCA qualification, Hriday combines academic excellence with hands-on industry experience.
He is also the creator of the LinkedIn newsletter The Automated Advantage, where he delivers weekly insights on practical frameworks for harnessing AI to transform business processes.
His passion for rebuilding workflows isn't just theoretical. While still a student, he was struck by how most accounting software failed to enforce fundamental financial controls, forcing users into manual bypasses. He realized this "control gap" was an architecture problem.
This led him to build "ProAcc," a full-stack MVP to prove that robust, auditable controls—like Segregation of Duties—can be embedded directly into a modern web app. For the project, he used Next.js 15, TypeScript, and Google's Genkit to build a system that enforces a "Maker-Checker" workflow and immutable audit trails from the ground up.
An engaging and forward-thinking speaker, Hriday excels at demystifying automation and its impact on finance. His talk offers a unique perspective: he doesn't just discuss theory; he provides an actionable, code-level blueprint drawn from his multifaceted journey.
Beyond the professional realm, Hriday is a dedicated HYROX athlete, having recently competed in the 2025 Mumbai event, demonstrating his commitment to holistic growth.
