About Me
Hello! I’m Vasanth Srikumar Varada

Sales & Business Development and Customer Relationship professional with two decades of work experience. I am a flexible, disciplined, rational, non-influential, less prejudiced, open, positive human who is honest and simple in approach. I strongly believe in my ‘Karma’ and do not carry ‘Self-Righteousness’ in life. I have a genuine interest to talk to people around me & listen to them. Truly uphold the values in life.Thrive constantly on three core values viz, Integrity, Independence, and Identity. A bit of meditation every day keeps me stay calm. Daily introspection has helped me to live life with less baggage. I seek continuous learning, anything about people’s behaviour fascinates me. I believe I can work without compromise both in solitary & in a group. Living with gratitude, for all the good & bad that happened in life is my philosophy.

I am an individual who does not live in the perception of others nor take out time to correct those. I am liberal in my religious views. Being a perfectionist, at times made me uncomfortable not meeting deadlines, and get impatient dealing with less enthusiastic people. I strongly believe my purpose in life is to give back to society in my own way. To sum up, I see myself as an individual wired for compassion, educationally responsible and socially committed.

Chief Executive Officer-Technopark
(2011-16)

I have known Mr. Vasanth Varada since he got selected at Technopark in August 2014. Soon after the induction the management team found him to be a systematic and process oriented person. A hard working professional with high adaptive skills and his sincerity to day to day commitment has been always noteworthy. Unique features which make stand out are his analytical and reasoning capabilities and the time he invests in understanding the subject. There has been instances where Vasanth has shown exemplary leadership capabilities, drove and aligned everyone as a team, not only in Marketing, but during many socio cultural events conducted within the park premises. He has taken assignments, challenged and worked towards meeting deadlines. Being a marketing professonal, he is more customer centric, easily approachable as an individual cum professional by the larger IT community within Tecnopark campus. I recall his specific contributions in the following areas:  1) Building up a truly transparent system for space allocation within the Park.  2) Close to perfect documentation and regular conduct of the Space management Committee as the Convener.  3) Envisioning and putting up the new website for Technopark. Vasanth has a very positive in approach and attitude, upholding integrity to the core, a great team contributor and carries an ambitious outlook for self. I wish him the very best.
