I’m very excited to announce that Ms. Manjari Gauba, a leading industry executive, is NeXTnet’s Vice President of Business Development and Strategic Partnerships, effective immediately.

Manjari brings over 25 years of global, cross-functional experience with prestigious enterprises, including AirPlus International and Lufthansa. Her international exposure spans Europe and Asia-Pacific, including India, China, Australia, Japan, Singapore, Philippines, Thailand, Nepal, and the Maldives.

She holds a double Master’s degree, including a Master’s Degree in Commerce, and was a Gold Medalist in her MBA program. A polyglot, Manjari is fluent in several languages, including German, and has extensive experience working across diverse cultures and markets.

Manjari will lead NeXTnet's Business Development and Strategic Partnerships, globally.

In her free time, she enjoys traveling, swimming, and painting.

I also want to take this opportunity to thank Douglas Cheung for his tireless contributions over the past 16 months. I wish him the very best in his future endeavors.
