With over 15 years at KPIT, I have been instrumental in enhancing KPIT's brand equity, driving significant growth, and fostering strong stakeholder engagement, particularly in the wake of KPITs merger/demerger in 2019. The efforts have not only boosted revenues and profitability but also created substantial value for our investors ( stock price moved from INR100 to 1800 in 3 years). Additionally, I have been collaborating with various stakeholders including NASSCOM to build the ER&D ecosystem and market since 2005, contributing to the vision of drawing a roadmap to achieve $20 billion by 2020( achieved) and $150 billion by 2030. Strategic Leadership: Reporting to the Co-Founder, CEO & MD, steering the company's global marketing and branding initiatives, contributing to market growth strategy, and driving demand generation. Brand Transformation: Spearheaded the post-merger/demerger branding strategy with Birlasoft, drew up the new KPIT Vision and Mission, worked with Pentagram to launch a new brand campaign. Enhanced brand image, reduced attrition rates, and elevated employee engagement and attraction. Market Expansion: Identified new industry sub verticals and whitespace opportunities, developing and executing go-to-market plans. Partnered with CTO and business leaders to incubate and position new product and services. Industry Recognition: KPIT as a global technology leader, winning numerous international and domestic awards. Represent KPIT at national and international forums, building strategic relationships with government, industry bodies, and partners. I have also had prominent roles in Bosch, TCS, Wipro Consumer Care, Neilsoft and Legrand, where I have excelled in Business Development, Channel & Product Management, Marketing, and Corporate Affairs. At Bosch created the market for Safe Mobility business ( From Scratch to INR 5000 Crores ) working with multiple stakeholders including OEMs, Govt, Media, Consumers and influencers. My experience in transforming brands, penetrating new markets, and fostering innovation positions me to help organizations drive overarching business success and create lasting value.
