Vidya Ravichandran Wins Nexus Illuminate Award
Louisville, KY – GlowTouch LLC CEO & Founder Vidya Ravichandran was named Nearshore Executive of the Year by Nearshore Americas, an organization dedicated to fostering economic development in technology services across Latin America and the Caribbean. The organization cited Ravichandran for doing more than launching a new location that brings new jobs; the Nexus Illuminate Award is the acknowledgment of an entrepreneur who also tries to make a social impact in the new communities where GlowTouch has offices.
“We approach site selection with careful consideration and strategic planning, and the nearshore region presents numerous opportunities,” stated Ravichandran. “The Dominican Republic boasts a skilled workforce with significant BPO experience, aligns well with the US business day, and offers a conducive environment for community involvement, which aligns perfectly with our business model.”
“At GlowTouch, we are deeply committed to putting people first,” said Vidya Ravichandran. “We approach site selection with careful consideration and strategic planning, and the nearshore region presents numerous opportunities. The Dominican Republic boasts a skilled workforce with significant BPO experience, aligns well with the US business day, and offers a conducive environment for community involvement. These factors perfectly align with our business model, where our focus on people remains paramount to our success.”
Last year, GlowTouch inaugurated its Santo Domingo facility, repurposing a space on the third floor of the Plaza Central shopping mall that was previously occupied by a fitness facility. The redesigned location now serves as a contact center that seamlessly blends style and functionality. Leveraging contact-center-as-a-service applications, the company enhances digital engagement with its valued clients. Moreover, the facility offers a range of employee-friendly amenities, providing a conducive environment for rejuvenation and replenishment.
“GlowTouch is proud to have transformed the Santo Domingo location into a cutting-edge contact center that blends functionality with employee well-being,” said Ravichandran. Our focus on leveraging advanced contact-center-as-a-service applications and creating a supportive work environment has allowed us to enhance digital engagement with our clients while providing our employees the necessary space to recharge and refuel. This recognition underscores our commitment to delivering outstanding results for our clients and creating a positive work culture.”
