Neo4j Appoints AWS Veteran Ish Thukral as General Manager for India and SAARC

 Neo4j has announced the appointment of Ish Thukral as General Manager for India and the SAARC region. Based in New Delhi, Thukral will spearhead Neo4j’s business expansion throughout the region to drive deeper customer engagements and a stronger partner ecosystem as demand for graph technology and connected data solutions continues to accelerate.

With two decades of experience in the enterprise technology industry, Thukral brings deep expertise in scaling high-growth businesses and building impactful go-to-market strategies. Prior to Neo4j, he held leadership positions at AWS, Oracle, and Ingram Micro, where he was instrumental in driving sales growth, customer success, and ecosystem expansion.

Thukral’s appointment follows the opening of an official entity in India in 2024 and the continued expansion of several key new roles into the revenue team, across field and partner operations, as part of the 2025 regional expansion strategy.

This newly expanded team will capitalize on the increasing adoption of graph technology within India and SAARC across many sectors, including BFSI, public sector, and telecommunications, and help organisations leverage their connected data for improved outcomes in key use cases such as fraud detection, cybersecurity, customer 360, and many other AI-powered solutions.

“Neo4j’s graph technology redefines how organisations uncover insights by revealing hidden patterns and relationships in complex data, driving innovation, smarter decisions, and competitive advantage,” said Thukral. “I’m excited to work alongside our valued partners across hyperscalers, system integrators, and GSIs to deliver outstanding customer experiences and make a lasting impact with graph technology across all markets.”
