"We are excited to be expanding into Australia and New Zealand with great support from the Victorian Government," said LeadSquared APAC senior vice president Raghvendra Tripathi.

"As we expand internationally, Melbourne's innovation culture, technology infrastructure, and talent will play a key role in supporting our efforts, not just from a market expansion perspective in the Oceania and APAC region, but also in leading our go-to-market training efforts globally."

"Our foray into Oceania through Australia is a beginning of great happenings for our clients in the region, and as we partner with the community, we also hope to take our learnings to other teams and customers globally," said LeadSquared vice president and Oceania regional head Roheet Tauro.

Victoria's Treasurer and Minister for Economic Development Tim Pallas said "The arrival of LeadSquared shows that Victoria is an attractive investment destination for companies looking to expand and grow in the Oceania and APAC region.

"This is a boost to Victoria's position as one of the leaders in the tech sector, as it builds on our tech capabilities, expands the ecosystem, and supports companies on their end-to-end sales and marketing journeys."
