Challenge: Expanding From India Into the U.S. Retail Technology Market
A leading retail and merchandise analytics provider based in India had achieved early traction in the U.S. but needed a seasoned sales leader to accelerate North American growth.
The company’s CEO sought a Vice President of Sales who could combine:

The search was completed swiftly and strategically, ensuring both technical expertise and cultural alignment with the client’s India-based executive team.
