Newgen appoints Tarun Nandwani as CEO, creates Chief Growth Officer role to drive global expansion

New Delhi, India – Newgen Software Technologies has announced a series of leadership appointments aimed at supporting its next phase of global expansion and advancing its strategy of helping enterprises adopt AI-powered operations.

Effective August 1, 2026, the company’s Board of Directors has appointed Tarun Nandwani as Chief Executive Officer. In his new role, Nandwani will oversee Newgen’s strategy, innovation, operations, and global execution.

The company has also established a new executive position of Chief Growth Officer, appointing Pramod Kumar to lead its global growth strategy. Kumar will be responsible for market expansion, strategic partnerships, ecosystem development, go-to-market initiatives, customer acquisition, and long-term revenue growth across international markets.

The appointments follow the previously announced resignation of Virender Jeet and are intended to ensure leadership continuity while supporting Newgen’s expansion into new markets, strengthening customer engagement, and building strategic partnerships.

According to the company, the enhanced leadership structure aligns with its vision of enabling organisations to move beyond isolated AI deployments by integrating processes, content, communications, data, and artificial intelligence through a unified platform. Newgen said this approach is designed to help enterprises improve agility, resilience, productivity, and business outcomes while maintaining governance and operational control.

The Board of Directors said the appointments reflect the company’s confidence in opportunities arising from the convergence of AI, automation, and enterprise transformation.

Commenting on the appointments, the Board collectively said, “Newgen has built a remarkable foundation through innovation, customer-centricity, and execution excellence. Today, enterprises across the world are looking beyond automation toward intelligent, AI-driven operations. Newgen is uniquely positioned to help organisations orchestrate intelligent enterprises at scale. Tarun and Pramod have each played an instrumental role in building Newgen’s success over many years. Their leadership, customer focus, and deep understanding of our markets position us exceptionally well to lead Newgen into its next phase of growth and innovation.”

Nandwani has been part of Newgen’s leadership team, where he has overseen global operations, delivery, customer success, and organisational development.

Commenting on his appointment, Tarun Nandwani, CEO, Newgen Software, said, “Newgen’s journey has always been defined by innovation, customer trust, and a passion for solving complex business challenges. I am honored to take on this responsibility at a time when enterprises are rethinking how they operate in an AI-first world. Our vision is to help organisations orchestrate intelligence across every process, interaction, and decision. With our differentiated platform, talented teams, and strong customer relationships, we are exceptionally well positioned to help enterprises transform with confidence while building on Newgen’s strong foundation for sustainable global growth.”

Kumar, who has been with Newgen for more than 27 years, has led multiple business and geographic portfolios while contributing to the company’s expansion across global markets.

Commenting on his appointment, Pramod Kumar, Chief Growth Officer, Newgen Software, said, “The opportunity ahead of us is tremendous. For decades, Newgen has been the trusted custodian of enterprise content and mission-critical business processes for leading organisations across the globe. With the AI-powered NewgenONE platform, enterprise content is transformed into an AI-ready knowledge foundation, enabling business processes and applications to leverage trusted organisational knowledge with greater accuracy, governance, and explainability. This is empowering our customers to make smarter decisions, automate workflows, orchestrate agents, generate contextual insights, and deliver intelligent experiences.

As enterprises accelerate their AI transformation journeys, they are seeking trusted partners who can help modernise operations, unlock tangible business value from AI, and deliver measurable outcomes. I look forward to expanding Newgen’s global footprint, strengthening strategic partnerships, deepening customer relationships, and accelerating the company’s next phase of sustainable growth.”
