Ingram Micro India has appointed Farhana Haque as country lead and executive director, platform business, effective 21 October 2026. She is based in Mumbai, reports to Flavio Moraes Junior, VP and chief country executive, Ingram Micro India, and joins the India executive leadership team.

  • Company: Ingram Micro India
  • Role: Country lead and executive director, platform business
  • Previously: Senior director, Microsoft
  • Focus: SMB growth through the platform ecosystem

What Farhana Haque Will Lead

The platform business, with a focus on accelerating growth among small and medium-sized businesses through Ingram Micro's platform ecosystem. She will also oversee platform operations and customer success, aiming for a more seamless, digitally enabled experience for partners.

"By aligning our cloud, AI, and platform capabilities with robust operational execution, we are uniquely positioned to simplify the partner journey, accelerate Xvantage adoption, and scale our presence across key market segments, including SMBs across the country," said Haque.

Her Background

Most recently she was senior director at Microsoft, leading enterprise transformation, AI strategy and commercial expansion across strategic services, cloud solutions and modern work. Before that she led Vodafone's Internet of Things business, driving partnerships and scaling operations across India and Asia-Pacific. At IBM she was general manager for the distribution sector, and she began her career at Infosys managing SAP projects, alliances and marketing.

She holds an MBA in marketing from SPJIMR and a bachelor's degree in civil engineering from NIT Rourkela.

Why It Matters

"The future of distribution will be defined by how effectively we connect technology, data, services and partners through a seamless digital ecosystem," said Moraes Junior. For a distributor, moving smaller customers onto a self-serve platform is the way to serve thousands of SMB partners profitably, and Haque's cloud and partner background points at exactly that job.
