<<Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, Google’s president for Asia-Pacific (APAC) & Latin American Operations, has left the company to join Accel Partners, the Silicon Valley venture capital firm that has backed companies from Facebook to Glam, Macromedia and MetroPCS.
This follows the departure of the company’s top sales executive, Tim Armstrong, two weeks ago, after his vision for a cross-media strategy disintegrated. And just yesterday, we broke the news that Google’s Latin America director, Gonzalo Alonso, had defected to join Argentine IT services company Globant.
Singh Cassidy will join Accel in a position known as “CEO-in-Residence,” where she’ll help Accel’s portfolio companies and have the option to study to become a chief executive of one of Accel’s future companies.>>
