Abhishek Arora came on board to build partnerships with the leading companies around the world for imagery, maps, POIs, and other geospatial data. Abhi joins us from Microsoft where he created alliances with aerial and satellite imagery companies for Bing Maps. Before Bing, he worked in the geospatial industry on engineering projects where he was a user of that data for over ten years. Abhi has a wealth of knowledge of the market that makes him a great fit for our growing needs.
Data is the fuel that runs our platforms and services. The output quality of those products is directly related to the quality of the data inputs. The geospatial data business is going through revolutionary change as customer demand for highly accurate, granular data drives new product offerings. Abhi will work closely with our product teams to develop strategies and build up our network of data partners to make those strategies happen.
You might catch Abhi running through the city in DC, playing cricket, or doing MMA. He is also a big fan of Bollywood movies. We are psyched to have him on the team.
