SaaS firm actyv.ai has announced the appointment of Abhijit Rao as its global head of people, to bolster its employer brand and support its growth. 

With over 18 years of experience in the IT industry, Rao has worked with leading companies in both the services and products sectors, including Infosys, Wipro, Onmobile, and UiPath. As head of people for the Asia-Pacific region at UiPath, he was instrumental in setting up and expanding the people operations function. Rao is a Sloan's Fellow in Leadership & Strategy from the London Business School. 

"Abhijit's passion for people development, domain expertise, and leadership will drive synergies and help build a world-class organisation focused on a 'people-first' and winning culture," said actyv.ai CEO Raghunath Subramanian.

“In today’s fast-paced and hybrid environment, true advantage emerges from the power of purpose. Organisations set themselves apart when their people are encouraged to bring their ‘best selves’ to work. With a purpose-driven vision of enabling the B2B supply chain ecosystem through technology, actyv.ai is helping spark imagination and build excitement for a more connected future! I am elated to be a part of this growth journey and look forward to building on the strong foundation laid down by the team,” said Abhijit.
