Bizongo, a B2B platform backed by Tiger Global, has made several new appointments to its leadership team. Former American Express executive Gaurav Singhania has been named as the Chief Financial Officer, while ex-Amazon Pay executive Amol Wanjari has been appointed as the Chief Technology and Product Officer. The announcement comes amidst reports of a complaint filed by Bizongo against an employee for misappropriation of funds, leading to the departure of the company's CFO. Additionally, Bizongo is expanding two of its business verticals, with Kiran Dev becoming the CEO of BizongoFin, the supply chain financing arm, and Prahlad Krishnamurthi taking over as CEO of BizongoBuy, a marketplace for small and medium businesses to purchase raw materials. The company recently raised $50 million in its Series E funding round, valuing it at approximately $980 million.
