Meet the exec team
Suresh Punjabi, Chief Executive Officer |
|
| Suresh Punjabi founded Worldstone (formerly Corporate Communications Europe Ltd) in 1995 and has been the Managing Director from inception. Prior to this, Suresh was responsible for Business Development at an AT&T subsidiary specialising in Smart Card technology. Suresh identified at the time that there were few companies in the UK and Europe focussed on delivering projects against a measurable return on investment and even fewer focused on delivering service excellence to customers. Worldstone's business model from the outset has been to address this gap. Over the years, this approach to help organisations, together with the independent advice we provide, has resulted in long-term strategic relationships with customers. Suresh's relentless passion is to continue to build a business that employees are proud to work at, as well as a business that continues to build an excellent reputation with its customers and suppliers. |  |
