Aamir Bashir Appointed to Lead Regional Operations as Recruitment Efforts Ramp Up
NEW YORK, Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Storyful Newswire is excited to announce the launch of a new team in India, marking a strong step in the company's global expansion strategy. This new presence will support Storyful's mission to acquire and verify viral videos from every corner of the world. The India expansion will further cement Storyful's position as the global leader in providing newsrooms and brands with the most compelling and authentic content available.
Industry veteran Aamir Bashir will lead operations in the region and brings a wealth of experience in media and content acquisition, having previously led content strategy and digital media efforts for major organizations in the India region and further afield. With an established track record of growing and managing large content teams, his expertise will be instrumental in driving Storyful's regional initiatives forward.
