Rajesh Gopinathan, former MD & CEO, Tata Consultancy Services and professor IIT Bombay, has joined the board of the National Stock Exchange (NSE), making him the second former head of a technology company to be appointed after Veneet Nayar, former vice chairman & CEO of HCL Technologies, joined the NSE board in September 2021 as non-independent director.
Gopinathan's appointment comes at a time when the bourse is looking to shift its data centre from its existing premises with colocation becoming the dominant mode of trading after the pandemic, due to a surge in derivatives and cash volumes.
His over 25 years of experience in the global technology industry, a part of which was spent heading one of the world's largest tech services firms (TCS), will come in handy for the exchange, whose top priorities include shifting its data centre within a year to a year-and-a-half," said a person on condition of anonymity.
