In a strategic move to boost its presence in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, global technology outsourcing company Thrive has appointed two seasoned industry veterans to key leadership positions. Farhad Jowharsha and Naveen Chodavarapu have been appointed as Vice Presidents, APAC, with Jowharsha based in the Hong Kong office and Chodavarapu operating out of the Singapore office.

His impressive career includes senior roles at Forrester Research, Gartner, and others. In his new role, he aims to grow Thrive's sales pipeline and deliver consultative solutions across APAC.
Chodavarapu, on the other hand, will spearhead the APAC Operations team from the Singapore office. His background in customer success roles at HP, DXC Technology, Alcatel-Lucent, and others, has prepared him to lead the team in customer success, operations efficiency, and strengthening partnerships with technology collaborators in the region.
Together, Jowharsha and Chodavarapu are tasked with advancing Thrive's growth trajectory in APAC by boosting customer engagement, cultivating partnerships, and expanding the company's footprint in this key market. This move is crucial for Thrive's future global success.
