Techugo appoints Akshay Gupta as vice president for global IT
NOIDA: Techugo, the global mobile application development and digital transformation firm, has appointed Akshay Gupta as vice president, IT for global markets, signalling its intent to sharpen technology leadership as it scales across borders.
In his new role, Gupta will lead Techugo’s global IT strategy, with a focus on building secure, high-performance and scalable technology frameworks that support worldwide operations. His mandate is clear: align technology with business outcomes, strengthen global delivery, and help power the company’s next phase of international growth.
Gupta joins Techugo from Global Innovations, where he served as chief business officer and steered revenue planning, operations and cross-functional teams across markets. He played a key role in driving business transformation through technology-led initiatives.
Over the years, he has held senior leadership positions at AdCrest Media LLC, Digital Cappuccino and Ackrolix Innovations, contributing to market expansion and operational growth in the digital space. His career also includes consulting stints with global brands such as HP, HCL Technologies, Google ETO, OLX Group and Unacademy, giving him a rare blend of enterprise scale exposure and startup agility.
What sets Gupta apart is his unconventional journey. He began in sales, marketing and P&L leadership before moving steadily into IT operations, infrastructure planning and digital systems. That transition has shaped his belief that technology works best when it speaks the language of business.
Commenting on the appointment, Techugo CEO and co-founder Abhinav Singh said, “Akshay understands both sides of the table. He has driven revenue and quietly built IT strategy behind the scenes. As we expand globally and invest deeper in enterprise and AI-led solutions, his leadership will be critical in creating a robust and future-ready IT ecosystem.”
Gupta said he was excited to join Techugo at a pivotal moment. “My journey from business leadership to IT strategy has reinforced one simple truth: technology must enable growth, efficiency and scale. Techugo is at an exciting stage globally, and I look forward to working with teams across regions to build secure, efficient and innovative systems that deliver real value to clients.”
With this appointment, Techugo continues to position IT not as a support function, but as a strategic engine for global growth.
