The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Kazam, the top EV charging and energy-tech platform in India, is Ram Balasubramanian. The action is taken as the business grows into new business verticals, scales operations, and boosts income.
Having worked with Siemens, KPMG, and Star TV Network, Ram has more than 15 years of experience in financial strategy, operations, and governance. He worked closely with portfolio firms on growth and execution while he was with Vertex Ventures, an early investor in Kazam, before joining the company. His shift from investor to operator is indicative of his deep belief in Kazam’s course and prospects.
Ram will be in charge of capital deployment, performance monitoring, and financial planning for Kazam’s growing portfolio, which includes more than 70,000 charging stations, multi-modal EV collaborations, and a trial peer-to-peer energy exchange program.
Ram is the perfect addition to Kazam’s leadership team as we approach this next era of expansion because of his track record of balancing finance with business vision and his in-depth knowledge of the startup landscape,’ said Akshay Shekhar, CEO and co-founder of Kazam.
The deal strengthens Kazam’s growth in more than 300 Indian cities and ten foreign markets, where it provides cutting-edge B2B energy solutions to customers including BigBasket, HPCL, Mahindra Logistics, and Bajaj.
