IDG India's CIO magazine presented the 8th annual CIO100 award to Usha International at the JW Marriott, Pune in a glittering awards ceremony held this month. CIO magazine recognized CIOs (Chief Information Officers) and IT leaders from leading Indian organizations for being imaginative and innovative with their IT deployments in difficult economic conditions.
Mr. Subodh Dubey, Group CIO and Senior VP at Usha International commented, "I feel excited on receiving such an honor. This has come after months of perseverance and hard work being put in by our employees. It is indeed a great encouragement for us to continue delivering cost efficient, innovative and technologically advanced products to our customers to meet their ever changing requirements."
Commenting on the occasion, CIO magazine's Editor-in-Chief, Vijay Ramachandran says, "Uncertain economic situations, challenging business requirements, fast-changing market needs and demanding end-users are the new normal. CIOs are now expected to deliver superior IT solutions and execute larger number of business technology projects with shortened timelines, fewer resources and tighter budgets. Therefore, this year's CIO100 awards theme was aptly chosen as - The Astute 100 - that recognized and felicitated the CIOs who have been imaginative and inventive in these times; and adept and astute in converting the handicaps to their advantage while not only enabling their businesses to grow but also extend their lead on their competition. Many congratulations to Usha International on receiving this award."
