Marlabs Innovation LLC., the global digital solutions company, announced the appointment of Thomas Collins as its new Chief Executive Officer. He brings 28 years of experience in various leadership positions in global companies. Prior to Marlabs, Collins was Chief Operating Officer at Accion Labs and had successful positions at Accenture, Siemens, Atos and GlobalLogic. He is also the co-founder of AppliLog, a supply chain management software company and customer expert, and business development consulting firm. The company’s co-founder and current CEO Siby Vadakekkara will assume the position of chairman.
Collins’ appointment follows an intensive search for an exceptional leader who aligns with Marlabs’ cultural values. Siby said: “I congratulate Tom on his new position. Throughout his career, he has been instrumental in developing go-to-market strategies, winning major customers, and transforming teams into high-growth companies. I am confident that Tom’s experience in scaling digital engineering firms and supporting clients with transformation initiatives will accelerate our growth ambitions while delivering compelling value to our clients.”
Collins is known in the industry for his strategic leadership, communication, negotiation and interpersonal skills and holds a degree in business administration from the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.
“It is an honor and great responsibility to lead Marlabs,” said Collins. “I was drawn to Marlabs’ exceptional customer base and its reputation for accelerating digital transformations in enterprises. I would especially like to thank Siby and Matt Kinsey , Managing Partners of Marlabs’ investor BV Investment Partners, for trusting me to take on this task,” said Collins on his appointment.
Marlabs has been on an accelerated growth path since its partnership with BV Investment Partners and continues to provide high quality and efficient services to clients in the pharmaceutical and life sciences, manufacturing and retail, and banking and insurance industries. In 2015, the company acquired Extentor Tquila to strengthen its Salesforce platform capabilities. Earlier this year, it announced its expansion in LATAM with the acquisition of Brazil-based Monitora Soluções Tecnológicas. This gives it access to new growth markets and offers its customers nearshore capacities while simultaneously deepening its technological capabilities.
