The appointment comes at a period of significant growth for the business, following a rebound of air travel across Asia. In light of the market recovery, Topcast has launched several new business initiatives and signed new partnerships including rebuilding the APEC sales team, driving business expansion in Americas, and promoting and retaining talent.
