Prasad Sabbineni has been serving MetricStream as the Chief Technological Officer while Gaurav Kapoor is the Co-Founder and has served as the Chief Financial Officer of the company until 2010.

Gunjan Sinha, Executive Chairman, MetricStream said, “MetricStream has been on a GRC SaaS journey over the past several years with a focus on delivering value to our customers. As the need for GRC solutions continues to accelerate, we are one step ahead, continuously innovating with the changing needs of the market towards simplicity, hyper-automation, and the cloud. 

He also thanked Bruce for his leadership during the last two years and is extremely confident in MetricStream’s exceptional ability to drive the next phase of GRC leadership. 

Gaurav Kapoor has nearly a decade of international operating experience with previous employers like CITI and has been serving as an advisor and on the board of other Silicon Valley tech companies. 

Prasad Sabbineni joined MetricStream after a career spanning over two decades in the Wall Street financial services industry.
