Tanla Platforms Limited has appointed Sunil Bajpai as its chief trust officer, effective May 19, 2022. Bajpai joins the company after working with government of India for over 30 years, including in Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), where he served as principal advisor. At Tanla, he will now be responsible for driving exceptional trust standards for the communications platform-as-a-service (CPaaS) ecosystem with specific focus on the consumers of business communication.
Commenting on the appointment, Uday Reddy, founder, chairman and CEO, Tanla Platforms, said, “Tanla is a company with a larger purpose of instilling trust across the CPaaS ecosystem – we are extremely honoured to serve over a billion consumers – our customer’s customers. We have instilled trust in the products we develop with a single-minded focus on data security and data privacy and protecting the consumers from spam and fraud. Bajpai joining Tanla as chief trust officer with his exemplary track record in this domain highlights our commitment to be a thought leader in the exciting world of trusted business communication. I am very excited to have Bajpai on board and he brings tremendous passion for building trust across the ecosystem, keeping the consumers interests in mind. I’ve admired Bajpai’s work for years, and it is a pleasure to have him on the team.”
Meanwhile, Bajpai said, “When TRAI came out with the Telecom Commercial Communication Customer Preference Regulations (TCCPR) regulation, I saw Tanla’s innovation and domain knowledge help convert the regulatory intent into reality by building Trubloq, the largest blockchain use case in CPaaS industry in the world. I am very excited to join Tanla with its passion for innovation and compliance because Tanla has repeatedly demonstrated that they are committed to drive trust across all dimensions of their business. My priority is to build trust amongst the consumers and achieve gold standard in user experience.”
Bajpai has held numerous positions of responsibility across policymaking, research, and leadership in the Indian government. At TRAI, he was the key proponent and the brain behind the TCCCPR 2018, a path-breaking first-in-the-world initiative for controlling spam and fraud communications and protecting the interests of the consumers. The board of Tanla is thrilled to welcome Bajpai as part of the Tanla family.
