Over the years, Manab has expanded his role beyond presales, becoming a trusted leader in shaping regional strategies and partner enablement. Earlier as Senior Manager, he represented NETGEAR at global platforms such as GITEX Dubai and Infocomm Asia & India, where he showcased the company’s next-generation ProAV solutions. He also pioneered large-scale technical training initiatives, equipping hundreds of certified integrators with expertise in 10G networking, PoE+, and cloud-based deployments—strengthening the region’s technology ecosystem.
