Srinivasan K Swamy, the outgoing IAA Chairman and World President, said, “When we discussed the possible names to give the IAA Honorary Membership at the officers’ level, all were unanimous in their approval of Ramesh’s name. In the last couple of years as Vice-President Marketing of IAA Global and as Area Director/VP of Asia Pacific, his commitment to the task at hand was of a very high order. His strategic mind and the ability to execute the plans endeared him well with the entire IAA global community. When his name went up to the Executive Committee for approval, there was overwhelming approval for it. When his name was announced at the IAA Board meeting on Monday (October 5), everyone was delighted that Ramesh was thus honoured. This is but a small recognition for his huge contribution to IAA.”

His contributions to the India chapter of IAA have been unparalleled and it is my privilege to have him continue to contribute to IAA India.”
