Chandradev Mehta is Senior Vice President of Strategy and Business Development at Hexion Inc., a global specialty chemicals company, where he leads the M&A function as a core driver of business model transformation. He spent years leading corporate development and strategy at Honeywell, one of the most active industrial acquirers in the world, before bringing that operating experience to Hexion's transformation agenda. What makes Chandradev's perspective distinct is that he's not just executing deals — he's using M&A to answer a harder question: how does a company built on chemistry become a company driven by technology? That question is sitting on the desk of every industrial CEO right now, and Chandradev has real experience navigating it.
