Sarat will build on the foundation set by Vinay (Firake) in the Nordics and lead our combined Northern Europe region to new heights,” said Wipro’sBruno.
In his new role, Chand will oversee operations in the combined Benelux and Nordics regions, which include Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden.
This strategic consolidation follows the recent appointment of the former Nordics head, Firake, as the CEO of the APMEA strategic market unit. The integration of the Nordics and Benelux regions into a single Northern Europe unit is aimed at driving growth and operational efficiency.
