Having previously served as marketing manager for Sennheiser India and with Hyundai Electronics before that, Agarwal brings a blend of marketing and professional audio sales experience to the team in India. He'll use that experience to drive Harman Professional's marketing and public relations strategies in the region and build upon the foundation laid by Sushil John, systems director, India.
Both Agarwal and John will report directly to David McKinney, senior director of sales, Asia, Harman Professional. They'll work together to develop new initiatives in the region that will serve to support both customers and channel partners. One of his first projects will be to provide support for Harman Professional's presence at the PALM India Show in Mumbai this month, where the latest products and technologies in professional A/V are introduced to the Indian market.
"We are all very excited to have Agarwal join our team in India," commented McKinney. "His fresh perspective on marketing, his creative ideas and his vast experience in the audio industry will ensure that he makes an immediate impact working alongside Sushil John as they build on the great work that Sushil has done over the past five years in India."
In addition to the expansion of its marketing team, Harman Professional will also be adding a full sales, technical support and service team that "will provide a greater level of customer service to its stakeholders in the region".
