Motivity Labs, a leading provider of mobile, cloud and big data solutions to global enterprises, has enhanced its executive management team with the hire of Manish Tyagi as CEO and appointment of Prabhakar Reddy as President - Motivity Solutions. Both Tyagi and Reddy will also be Board Directors.

The company is expanding its leadership team to continue its aggressive growth strategy and establish a strong presence in new areas based on its industry knowledge and engineering expertise. The leadership announcement comes after the August announcement of Motivity's ranking at #138 within the 2014 Inc500.

Mr. Tyagi joins Motivity after a very successful decade at Cognizant, where he was instrumental in growing their Banking & Financial Services practice, Media & Telecom Practice and most recently running a practice focused on Strategic Alliances looking at mobile, cloud and big data innovations. Prior to Cognizant, he was at Bank of America in a technology leadership role and also spent 7 years at IBM to begin his career.

"I joined Motivity because of a very exciting opportunity that we have here to build a innovative platform that can create great value to our clients. It's exciting to bring the technology innovation to the enterprises and help them to serve their customers efficiently. Not many companies get to tap into early stage disruptive technologies and build solutions that can really give our clients access to creative ways of doing business," said Tyagi.

Reddy's role as President of Motivity Solutions will entail taking to market the company's core capabilities that differentiate them. He will also continue to be involved in a strategic role by heading Sales and Strategy.

"I am excited to build Motivity's solutions division by working with our engineering team and utilizing our industry knowledge and relationships and also to work closely with Manish to take the company to the next level," said Reddy.
