Vinod Kumar, Managing Director & CEO, Subex said, “This has been a year of moving from stability to growth phase for Subex. FY19 has been a successful year both from a strategy and execution perspective where we met expectations.

We started off the year by defining a 3-Horizon strategy with an objective to be the pioneers in Digital Trust across multiple verticals. We have reinvigorated our core offerings in Horizon 1 with the infusion of AI/ML, empowering our customers to embrace digital disruption. This has enabled us to significantly improve our competitive advantage and perform well on our core areas, thereby providing us the necessary platform to pursue newer growth areas. We have also successfully achieved targets that we had set for ourselves in the new offerings in Horizon II like IoT Security and Analytics, and the demand in these areas continues to grow. Further in line with our Horizon III plans, we launched CrunchMetrics, which has opened a huge addressable market for us. Both Horizon II and III offerings allow us to adopt subscription-based revenue models that presents us with exponential growth opportunities.

I am happy to state that all these efforts have resulted in us securing a 30% increase in new business acquisition over last year and thereby providing the necessary impetus for a stronger FY 20. Digital trust is emerging as a key pillar of digital economy and being a major player in this space will help in significant value creation for all our stake holders in the coming years

Mr. Anil Singhvi, Chairman, said “It gives me great pleasure to welcome Mr. George Zacharias as an Independent & Non-Executive Director. George is a very experienced business leader and we are extremely pleased to have someone of his caliber and expertise join our Board. On behalf of the board and everyone at Subex, I would like to welcome George to the Subex family.”
