Giorgio Mihaila has been appointed as chief executive of its Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) division and will join the company on July 1 2022.

Mihaila is a highly qualified CPaaS expert with deep technical experience and a proven track record driving growth across international teams.

Based in North America, Mihaila's focus at Symbio will be to drive the company's CPaaS strategy, directly contributing to Symbio's vision to have 100 million numbers on network by 2030.

His leadership and deep knowledge of the Asian market will also be valuable in contributing to the execution of Symbio's expansion in the APAC region.

"We are extremely pleased to be welcoming an executive of Giorgio's calibre as the head of our CPaaS division," Symbio co-founder and CEO Rene Sugo says.

"Giorgio truly is a champion of cloud technologies and strategy, and we look forward to leveraging his continued enthusiasm for CPaaS to drive growth and further innovating our capabilities at Symbio," he adds.

"I am thrilled to be joining Symbio and look forward to working with the team at this exciting time in its growth trajectory," Mihaila says.

"There exists a huge opportunity, particularly in Asia, to work with customers to integrate real-time communication into their businesses.

"I strongly believe in the central role CPaaS plays in the future of connectivity.

"Symbio's ambitious strategy and impressive global client base provide a unique opportunity for growth in the APAC region.

"I believe my experience, together with the fantastic team Rene has built, positions me well to lead this division through its next evolution of growth."
