    Kaur power drives WSO2’s APAC ambitions with digital push

    MUMBAI: She’s got the code to scale. In a strategic play to fuel its digital dominance across Asia-Pacific, Wso2 has appointed Navneet Kaur as vice president and general manager for the region. From India to Japan, and from SAARC to Southeast Asia and ANZ, Kaur’s appointment signals a sharpened focus on enterprise transformation in one of the world’s fastest-growing digital markets.

    Armed with over 20 years of experience at tech giants like Salesforce, Mulesoft, and Capgemini (Aricent), Kaur has made a career out of scaling businesses and building high-performing teams across APAC. Now, she’s steering Wso2’s vision for the region at a time when cloud-native innovation and digital infrastructure modernisation are hitting a major inflection point.

    “There’s a wave of innovation and opportunity in the region,” Kaur said, adding that Wso2’s platform is uniquely poised to help businesses “modernise and compete in a cloud-first world.” Her leadership will be central to advancing the company’s open-source and SaaS offerings ranging from API management and integration to identity and access management for sectors like BFSI, telecom, and government.

    WSO2 already enjoys strong traction in India, and the company is doubling down on customer-centric strategies, strategic partnerships, and value delivery across APAC. With enterprises increasingly seeking secure and scalable digital experiences, the Sri Lanka-headquartered firm is betting big on Kaur’s deep domain knowledge and transformative vision.

    By investing in strong regional leadership, WSO2 hopes to unlock meaningful business outcomes in the region, one digital experience at a time.

    Mumbai: Sony Sports Network will telecast the Bihar Women’s Asian Champions Trophy Rajgir 2024 live for hockey fans across India, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. This much-anticipated continental tournament will be held from 11 to 20 November 2024 at the newly built Rajgir Hockey Stadium in Bihar.

    Sony Sports Network will ensure a seamless broadcast of the tournament, where the Indian Women’s Team has an impressive record. Having won the trophy for the first time in 2016, India enters the competition as the defending champion after reclaiming the title in Ranchi in 2023. With this victory, India joined Japan as one of only two teams to have won the trophy twice. The Indian team will face strong competition from Olympic silver medallist China, as well as Japan, Korea, Malaysia, and Thailand.

    Led by captain Salima Tete and vice-captain Navneet Kaur, India will play against Malaysia on the tournament’s opening day, eager to secure an early victory. After missing out on qualification for the Paris Olympics this year, the Women’s Asian Champions Trophy presents a vital opportunity for the team to start afresh.

    India must achieve a top-four finish among the six participating teams to advance to the semi-finals on 19 November. The winners of the Semi-Finals will then progress to the Final, scheduled for 20 November. This tournament also marks the Indian women’s hockey team’s first Asian competition under chief coach Harendra Singh, who took charge earlier this year.

    All the matches will be broadcast live on Sony Sports Ten 1 SD and HD channels and live streamed on SonyLIV, starting from 1500 hrs IST.
