According to Shirvastava, while his primary job will be the products and engineering team he will also be focused on enhancing customer experience – as will the rest of the company. “It is important for B2B (business-to-business) companies to focus on customer experience as done in consumer-facing businesses. This is extremely important for brand pull,” he said in a report by ET.
Along with improving customer experience, the company will also be working on improving its current offerings and better interface.
Meanwhile, Ambrish Gupta, Knowlarity’s chief executive, says that they plan to leverage Shrivastava’s knowledge and experience to make tech the ‘fulcrum of Knowlarity’s operations’.
