The Silicon Partners Welcomes Steve Birgfeld to Its Advisory Board
FOLSOM, CALIFORNIA | MAY 18, 2026
We’re proud to announce that Steve Birgfeld has joined the Advisory Board of The Silicon Partners.
Steve Birgfeld, former CIO of Blue Diamond Growers, is joining the TSP Advisory Board. Steve brings more than a title to this role. As the CIO of Blue Diamond Growers, one of the world’s most recognized agricultural cooperatives, he has led enterprise-scale transformation in one of the most operationally complex industries in the world.
The decisions he made weren’t theoretical. They were made under real constraints, with real consequences, inside a business where technology either delivers or it doesn’t.
That kind of experience is rare. And it’s exactly what enterprises deserve access to.
Steve Birgfeld, Advisory Board Member of TSP
“What I appreciate about TSP is that they are more than just implementers. They are true business partners, wanting to understand the business requirements to develop the best approach. They realize that a transformation is not successful when it goes live; it is successful when the business actually runs better. That partnership approach is the standard that I see reflected here.”
Ravi Chowdhury, CEO of TSP
“Steve offers something rare: the perspective of a leader who has actually driven transformation at enterprise scale. Having guided one of the most respected organizations in the American growers industry through real change, made consequential decisions, and delivered measurable results, he brings a depth of experience that will strengthen both our Advisory Board and our work with clients.”
For the organizations we serve that are navigating SAP transformations, AI adoption, and increasingly complex operating environments, having an advisor who has lived those challenges firsthand changes the quality of the conversation.
Welcome to the team, Steve. We’re honored to have you!
