About Suraj Angepat
A seasoned telecom professional with 30 years of experience leading cross-border operator alliances, enterprise voice and messaging solutions, and telecom innovation. Currently spearheading product sourcing and operator partnerships at Tata Communications, I have expanded access services across 38+ countries and built new revenue models in PSTN, Cloud Numbers, and Mobile Virtual Numbers. Previously, I co-founded Kryptos Global and scaled it into a USD 10M voice carrier—achieving profitability within three years and establishing 200+ global interconnects. My strength lies in crafting strategic operator engagement plans, building high-margin partnerships, and executing on-ground technical rollouts—from regulatory clearance to commercial success. I specialize in working with MNOs, OTTs, CPaaS platforms, and regulatory bodies to drive scalable telecom solutions across Asia, Europe, and emerging markets.
