Jibak’s deep understanding of the industry will be crucial in driving IMTMA to achieve its goals.”
According to Jibak Dasgupta, “I am elated to have joined a vision-oriented association and keenly look forward to providing a strategic direction to IMTMA and supporting the Indian machine tool industry to capitalize on market opportunities.”
