Salesforce names Arundhati Bhattacharya as its Chairperson and CEO India

Salesforce has announced that Arundhati Bhattacharya will join the company on April 20th as Chairperson and CEO, Salesforce India, to lead the company’s growth and expansion across the market.

Gavin Patterson, President and CEO, Salesforce International comments, “Arundhati is an incredible business leader and we are delighted to welcome her to Salesforce as Chairperson and CEO India. India is an important growth market for Salesforce and a world-class innovation and talent hub and Arundhati’s leadership will guide our next phase of growth, customer success and investment in the region.”  

Salesforce, headquartered in San Francisco, has been scaling rapidly in India. The company’s growth has been fuelled by businesses accelerating their digital transformation and partnering with Salesforce as their trusted digital advisor. Salesforce enables companies to take advantage of powerful technologies — cloud, mobile, social, artificial intelligence, voice and blockchain — to deliver personalised, connected experiences for their customers. Leading Indian companies, such as CEAT, redBus, and Franklin Templeton, use Salesforce to connect with their customers in a whole new way.

Arundhati Bhattacharya, says, “Salesforce is a company with an impressive track record in supporting the digital transformation of its customers with world class technology and there is an incredible opportunity for future growth in India. Salesforce has also shown that it is guided by a core set of values and a mission to do good in the world and I could not be more excited to join the Salesforce team to ensure we capture this tremendous opportunity and contribute to India’s development and growth story in a meaningful way.“
