RONIN Hires VP of US Sales

UK-based B2B, healthcare and tech sector researcher RONIN International has appointed Venu Bendapudi as Vice President of US Sales.

Owned by the Rippleffect Group (formerly Fat Media Group), RONIN works globally on fieldwork in more than forty languages, from questionnaire design through to interviewing and data delivery. In June this year it appointed Terry Sweeney as Head of North America, re-establishing a permanent office on the continent.

Bendapudi (pictured) will help to grow this US presence. He brings more than twenty years' experience of the MR industry, including sales across business and consumer research in verticals including healthcare, media, retail, finance and IT. He began his MR operations career in India, leading a team of survey programmers and report analysts, then quickly moved to work in sales. He has worked mostly in the US but has also worked in Asia Pacific and Middle East markets, while living and working in Kuala Lumpur and Dubai.

Sweeney says of the hire: 'We are super excited to welcome Venu on board, and I am confident that his extensive experience and passion for our industry will undoubtedly contribute exceptional value to our customers. As we continue to expand our presence and business in the US, Venu's expertise promises to play a pivotal role in our success'.
