Strategic Alliances & Partnerships Support for Market Expansion in India and APC

Hello everyone 👋 I'm Saurabh Patil, a Strategic Alliances leader with a 13-year track record, most recently building partner portfolios at Microsoft with over $8M in managed impact. I specialize in a critical, high-value niche: serving as the dedicated alliances & partnerships lead in India for US and EU-based B2B SaaS/Cloud companies. I act as your on-the-ground general to launch, establish, and scale your partner ecosystem across the Indian and APJ markets. I'm now targeting a senior, India-based role (Senior IC, Head, or Director level) with a global tech leader or a fast-scaling innovator. My goal is to own and drive your entire regional partnership GTM—from strategy to revenue—while operating in sync with US/EU headquarters. I bring a rare combination of global framework expertise (from Microsoft) and deep local execution prowess. If your company is looking to build or accelerate its India/APJ partnerships channel with a dedicated, senior owner, I'd love to connect. Fun fact: My daily happiness is fueled by my dog's zoomies 🐕 and the zen of cooking 🍳. Let's talk: LinkedIn Profile : https://www.linkedin.com/in/saurabh-patil-a5184557/
