After years of fruitful structuring and positioning of Spectranet 4G LTE for business and growth, Mr. David Venn has given way for Mr. Ajay Awasthi as its new Chief Executive Officer.
Venn had apart from being the head of operations at the Internet Service Provider (ISP), been an informed analyst on issues bordering on the industry due to his vast experience spanning from managing related companies in Malaysia, Ghana, South Africa and Europe.
Before his change, Venn had been at the forefront of championing the campaign for reviewing data price floor (DPF), so as to encourage networks to grow investments and drive healthy competition. He also drove subscriber base of the company to become leading Internet Services Provider (ISP) in Nigeria year-on-year.
However, industry experts say Awasthi is set to deepen the campaign and better reposition the leading internet service provider to grow premium service delivery to Nigerians.
In a statement, the company said it is intensifying efforts to connect its customers to innovative internet solutions with the appointment of Ajay as he takes over from David Venn, who has been at the forefront of building Spectranet into a leading broadband Internet service provider in Nigeria, offering faster, affordable and reliable internet solutions to Nigerian homes and offices.
With over 17 years’ experience working in top positions in India’s telecommunications industry, Ajay looks forward to leverage Spectranet’s commitment to its customers and stakeholders and make its high quality, high speed broadband services widely available to more internet users.
He said: “I’m delighted with my appointment as the Chief Executive Officer of Spectranet. We shall continue to introduce innovative solutions that will boost our service offerings as a leading Nigerian brand and endear us to individuals, families and businesses.
“It’s our endeavour at Spectranet to offer faster, affordable and reliable high speed broadband connectivity to our customers. We will continue to sustain our commitment to provide high quality broadband services and help bridge the digital divide by reaching across to many more Nigerian families and businesses”
Ajay, who comes from a Sales & Marketing background, has a rich experience creating demand through marketing innovations, setting up multi-channel distribution network and running optimized business operations.
An alumnus of the prestigious Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore, Ajay is a strong believer in the power of distribution and customer service in building a sustainable customer franchise through superior levels of service quality
Speaking at the official handing over ceremony, David Venn commended the shareholders, management and staff of Spectranet for the opportunity to serve the company. According to him, Spectranet is now well positioned to transform the quality and availability of Internet service offerings across Nigeria.
