Partha Ghosh has quit as the Head, Corporate Communications, Digital Comms & CSR at Samsung Southwest Asia after an 8.5-year stint, when he took the brand's perception to new heights in India. Monday was his last day at Samsung.
Ghosh, who won the e4m IPRCCA's Corporate Communications Professional of Year award for 2022 earlier this month, shared the news of his moving on from Samsung through a LinkedIn post.
“Today was my last day at #Samsung...When I stepped into the Samsung HO in Gurugram eight & half years ago, I knew I was getting into an exciting new world, but had no idea it was going to be this high octane. I grew with Samsung as Samsung grew with India.”
