Bengaluru, India, October 9, 2024: NetApp has announced the appointment of Ganesan Arumugam as its Senior Director for APAC Channel Sales & Alliances.
Ganesan will coordinate with both global and regional market leaders to develop and execute NetApp’s channel strategy throughout Asia Pacific. In his new position, he is tasked with enhancing the capabilities and skillsets of the technical communities within the partner organization.

Previously, as our India Channel lead, Ganesan played a key role in building up a strong and reliable ecosystem made up of NetApp-managed and distributor-managed partners that extended well across the market and delivered consistent revenue growth. He will now step up to the APAC region, and I am confident he will replicate his success here.”
