Pacnet, an independent telecom service provider in Asia, has named Sunanda Das as Managing Director of Pacnet India, with responsibility for management and strategic development of the company’s business in India.
Based in Bangalore, Sunanda joins Pacnet from Cable and Wireless, where he was Managing Director and oversaw business in India and SAARC as well as provided strategic guidance to offshore operational support from India.
At Cable and Wireless, he turned the company’s India business around from a project office to a full-fledged business unit with significant market presence.
During his 12 years with Cable and Wireless, Sunanda was instrumental in acquiring its International Long Distance (ILD) and National Long Distance (NLD) licenses, rolling out the company’s NGN platform in India and also building up the Network Operation Center in India to support global customers.
"We are pleased to welcome Sunanda Das to Pacnet India and take on the challenge of leading our growth in this increasingly strategic market," said Chris van Zinnicq Bergmann, Managing Director of Pacnet Europe, Middle East and South Asia.
"With his leadership and vast industry experience, I am confident that he will be able to take our India business to the next level as we further invest and grow our operations here," added Bergmann.
Sunanda is a Chartered Accountant who attended St. Xaviers College in Calcutta.
