headcount and tripling revenue in the region, Druva will deliver
enhanced support through focused, local expertise and a partner network
of more than 600 existing customers in Asia-Pacific.

The Asia-Pacific region boasts one of the fastest growing technology

that an effective way to grow quickly and meet market demands is by
deploying technology that can scale with your business,” said Jaspreet
Singh, CEO and founder, Druva. “Our new Singapore office will support

regulatory needs and we are excited to have a local team that can also
support us as our data demands continue to grow.”
