About Satish V

For two decades, I’ve built my career around strengthening how organizations sell, grow, and sustain long-term customer value across the technology ecosystem. My path has taken me through IT (Hardware, Software, Cloud), Audio Visual Solutions (AV) and digital transformation environments where I learned to guide and develop high performing diverse teams, manage collaboration with cross-functional teams, deepen partner relationships, and expand business lines across highly competitive markets. I’m someone who thrives in fast-paced, multi-segment landscapes and enjoys bringing consistency and predictability in business with clarity, structure, and measurable outcomes to complex regional operations.I hold an Executive MBA (Sales & Marketing) from IIM Kolkata along with BE in Electronics and Communication from AIT, Ckm (VTU, Belgaum) and my experience spans business development, key account management, P&L oversight, channel expansion, pre-sales, and vendor management across Karnataka and Kerala. Over the years, my focus has remained steady: widening market penetration, building disciplined processes, and nurturing strong customer relationships that enable consistent revenue performance.My work blends leadership with hands-on execution. I lead multi-segment teams, collaborate with multi-functional teams, develop and drive new strategic initiatives, drive digital initiatives, strengthen operational systems, and support partners across industries such as Telecom, BFSI, healthcare, manufacturing, Govt/PSUs, and enterprise. I enjoy motivating teams, uplifting processes, and aligning business plans to real market needs.My career highlights include: • 300% growth in Kerala’s Advanced Solutions business in a FY at Ingram Micro. • Driving 6X expansion in Godrej AV Solutions from FY 2013–14 onward • delivering a balance of 50% business from Key accounts and 50% from New accounts.
