April 12, 2025

QBurst has announced the appointment of Arun Kumar Ramchandran (“Rak”) as the new Chief Executive Officer. Multiples Alternate Asset Management (Multiples) recently acquired a controlling stake in QBurst with an investment of ~USD 200 million.

Rak brings 25 years of leadership experience in technology-driven digital transformation and consulting. Across his professional journey, he has built and grown businesses in challenging market conditions, having worked with a wide range of clients from startups to F500 enterprises across industries. He is passionate about emerging technologies and AI.

Rak was last at Hexaware Technologies (NSE: HEXT), where he was the Global Business Unit Head for the fast growing High Tech and Professional Services Vertical. He was also leading the GenAI unit that is playing a pivotal role in shaping the company’s GenAI vision, offerings and execution across business units, service lines, and client portfolios, and has led their Digital Transformation service line in the past. Prior to Hexaware, Rak played leadership roles at Capgemini (Leader of Application Services Strategic Sales and Sogeti NA) and at Infosys (Leader of Life Sciences and Strategic Global Sourcing business units).

Commenting on his appointment, Rak said, “I am honored and excited to be stepping in as the CEO of QBurst at this important inflection point in its growth journey. QBurst is a digital engineering business providing cutting-edge technology solutions to a blue-chip client base across the US, Japan, South Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. With the convergence of disruptive changes and shifting environment across technology, industries, and regulations, a focused and differentiated firm like QBurst has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to break away from the pack and create a new technology & engineering services firm and delivery model for the AI-driven future.”

Renuka Ramnath, Founder & CEO of Multiples, and Manish Gaur, MD of Multiples, said, “QBurst has had an extraordinary journey, driven by a strong founding team and a relentless focus on supporting large digital transformation programs of its customers.
