Effective Feb.1,  Parimal Mody will take over as  global vice president of technology at Nucap Industries.

“Parimal’s addition is very timely,” said Khokhar. “Nucap has experienced a significant jump in technology and development partnerships over the last 18 months, all driving the implementation of new standards and processes in product manufacturing, on-vehicle performance, and product safety. Parimal’s history and skills make him the ideal resource to manage these critical initiatives going forward.”
