Former CEO of AirAsia X and iflix, now building digital health — a leader who has scaled disruptive businesses from zero across three industries.
Azran Osman-Rani has done something that most business leaders only claim: he has taken organisations from nothing to scale in genuinely disruptive industries, more than once. As CEO of AirAsia X, he helped pioneer low-cost long-haul aviation in Southeast Asia, growing the airline from zero to four million passengers a year. He then led iflix, Southeast Asia's streaming service, before co-founding Naluri — a digital health company tackling chronic disease management at population scale. He has been named a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader and is a TEDx speaker.
What Osman-Rani offers is not a theory of disruption but a lived account of it — the leadership decisions, cultural choices, and personal resilience required to build new businesses in environments where the rules are being written as you go. His thinking on breakthrough mindsets, crisis leadership, and the courage required to build a genuinely innovative culture draws on experience that is specific, recent, and cross-industry. His perspective on Asian business models — and on the ways they challenge Western assumptions about disruption — is increasingly valuable as the centre of global economic gravity continues to shift.
Azran suits leadership conferences, innovation summits, and entrepreneurship events — particularly those with an Asian, regional, or emerging-market focus. He is a strong fit for CEO and senior executive audiences navigating transformation in competitive, fast-moving industries. Audiences leave with a more honest and more actionable account of what it actually takes to build and lead a disruptive business.
