The company hired Shashwat Singh as Chief Information Officer; Ankur Sharma as Chief Financial Officer and Prashant Kamal as Head of India Manufacturing and Supply Chain.
The new team will work closely with co-founders Aman Gupta and Sameer Mehta and CEO Vivek Gambhir<\/a> to accelerate the rapid growth of the company.
\"Their values, skills and expertise will enable us to dramatically scale up and build a high-performance organisation. Together, we look forward to bringing the best we have to offer to our community of boAtheads,\" said Vivek Gambhir<\/a>, CEO, boAt.
Currently, boAt has nearly 250 members across its team in Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru.
Before boAt, Kamal worked in companies like Nokia<\/a>, Microsoft<\/a> and Flextronics<\/a> at a global level.
Singh comes with over 14 years of corporate experience in companies like Unilever, Kimberly Clark and Asian Paints.
As an Ernst & Young<\/a> scholarship holder and industry expert, Sharma will lead the company's financial functions.
Launched in 2016, boAt is the first digitally-native India brand to cross Rs 700 crore in net revenues within five years, and is now looking at expanding its product portfolio in India.
In January this year, boAt raised approximately $100 million (over Rs 731 crore) from an affiliate of Warburg Pincus, a leading global private equity fund, towards ramping up manufacturing and go global.
After disrupting the earwear and wearable category, boAt has now forayed into personal grooming with MISFIT and launched their line of Gaming headphones called \"Immortal\".
