GlobalLogic Inc., a Hitachi Group company and a leader in Digital Engineering, announced that Srinivas (Srini) Shankar, Chief Business Development Officer (CBO) and Head of Global Industries for GlobalLogic, has been named its new President and CEO, effective February 3, 2025. Srini will succeed Nitesh Banga, who has decided to step down to pursue new opportunities outside of Hitachi and GlobalLogic.
Nitesh joined GlobalLogic in June 2018. His leadership and experience helped GlobalLogic achieve significant organic and inorganic growth, expand the organization’s offerings, capabilities and footprint, and evolve as a global leader in design-led digital engineering. Nitesh also played a pivotal role in Hitachi’s acquisition of GlobalLogic and has been instrumental in the continued success of the synergy between the two companies, including the expansion of GlobalLogic’s business in Japan.
“I am proud of the significant growth we have achieved, the valuable impact we have engineered for our clients and their customers, and the digital transformation we have delivered across Hitachi during my tenure,” said Nitesh. “I am confident that Srini’s strong leadership and experience will guide GlobalLogic through the next wave of growth, helping our customers transform into intelligent and responsible enterprises.”
