SENIOR DIRECTOR FOR OPERATIONS

(Singapore)

Anand Swaminathan has over 25 years of business development experience spanning Asia, Middle East and the North African markets. He directed and managed diverse route-to-market models such as channel, consumer and enterprise segments both in the public and private sectors.

Having worked for prominent multinational firms such as Sony, Ingram Micro, Dell and Microsoft, Anand was involved in the area of providing strategic insights into the business management and buying behavior across diverse cross-cultural environments.
