Deepak Sood, Secretary General of the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) is moving on from the Chamber to pursue other interests, the Chamber said in a press release.
President of ASSOCHAM, Sanjay Nayar said, “Mr. Sood made important contributions to rebuilding a healthy balance sheet, delivering quality and a better national footprint for the chamber in recent years. The past presidents and I thank and wish him the best for the next phase.”
Speaking about his decision to step down from his post, Mr. Sood said, “I have decided to move on to pursue other interests, leaving behind more than five years of impact work at ASSOCHAM. After unlocking significant value following recent collaborations with Startup Mahakumbh 2024 and working on the Bharat@100 initiative, there is great satisfaction in ending the association with the chamber on a high. With guidance from Union and state governments, we have delivered insights into key growth areas. I thank the Presidium, Directors and members for their unwavering support.”
Before joining ASSOCHAM in 2019, Mr. Sood served as the CEO of Invest Karnataka, Government of Karnataka, and Executive Director at CII, among other roles with global organisations like ABB, Elf Lubricants (now called Total Fina Elf) and Larsen & Toubro.
