It is my pleasure to anchor the company’s customer experience function and nurture long-term customer relationships in the true Cuemath way.”
“Cuemath’s vision of creating the next generation of global problem solvers is unique as well as inspirational. Driven by our world-class curriculum, pedagogy, and teacher-led model we already have great adoption in India and a presence in 80+ countries. We now aim to deliver what few other Indian consumer companies have – a brand & product built in India but made for the world. I am thrilled to be part of Cuemath’s journey at such an exciting time,” Sam Sancheti, CSO and Head of Investor Relations at Cuemath added.
