NuSummit appoints Vidya Thakur as CHRO

NuSummit has appointed Vidya Thakur as Chief Human Resources Officer, reflecting a scale-up’s need for a cohesive people strategy across hiring, capability building, and culture. The CHRO’s brief includes standardizing HR processes, strengthening leadership pipelines, and institutionalizing performance frameworks that keep pace with business expansion.

As fast-growing firms mature, CHROs are pivotal to shifting from ad-hoc practices to repeatable, data-driven talent operations—covering workforce planning, OKRs, recognition, and inclusion. Thakur’s appointment underscores the company’s belief that employer brand, governance, and employee experience are strategic assets, not support functions, and that HR must co-design operating rhythms with the business to deliver scale without cultural debt.
