Cisco announced
that Janesh Moorjani has joined the India & SAARC sales organization as
president, Enterprise and Public Sector for the region.
Janesh will
lead Cisco‘s direct sales organization
across all enterprise verticals and also the public sector segment.
Janesh will be
based out of Mumbai and will report to Naresh Wadhwa, president and country
manager for Cisco in India. As the leader for Cisco’s enterprise and public
sector business, Janesh will aim to deepen Cisco’s customer relationships and
strengthen Cisco’s market and technology leadership across these key segments.
The appointment

the enterprise space. Recently, Huawei announced a slew of products directly competing with Cisco.
“We’re very
pleased to have Janesh join the Cisco India team. His diverse experience across
roles and geographies, strong execution skills and proven ability to lead top
performing teams, will play a critical role in taking our customer engagement
to the next level and we welcome him into the role,” said Naresh Wadhwa,
president and country manager, Cisco India & SAARC.
“For our
customers, technology has evolved from merely enabling the business to becoming
a cornerstone of business strategy for competitive advantage. Our customers are
looking to use technology to accelerate revenue, reduce costs, reduce business
risk and leapfrog competitors in a dynamic business environment. With Cisco’s
innovations across a broad portfolio in technology and a history of demonstrated
business relevance to our customers, we can
help them meet their business goals effectively,” said Janesh Moorjani.
Janesh joined
Cisco in 2004 in San Jose and worked with the worldwide sales organization
leadership team to drive Cisco’s global sales investment strategies. He
moved to the APAC region in 2007, and was most recently leading Cisco’s sales
growth in new and emerging areas, including Smart+Connected Communities.
