April 2025 – Arijit Khasnobis has taken over as Managing Director (Country Head) of Thieme India. With extensive experience in the publishing industry, he is well-equipped to further develop Thieme India strategically. A heartfelt thank you goes to Ajit Kohli, who has shaped the company with foresight for many years and is now ensuring a smooth transition.

Arijit Khasnobis joins Thieme India from Taylor & Francis India, where he most recently served as Vice President of Operations. With over 15 years of experience in the publishing industry, including expertise in production processes, automation, and compliance, he brings broad knowledge to drive Thieme India forward. "We are thrilled to have found a leader in Arijit who has deep roots in the industry," emphasizes Dr. Cathrin Weinstein, Senior Vice President International Business at Thieme.

Ajit Kohli has shaped the company for years, transforming it from a sales and marketing unit into a publisher as well as a central production hub with production services that are critically important for Thieme’s globally aligned publication activities in the science sector.

"Once again, we are very grateful to have had such a reliable and loyal leader in India with Ajit," says Cathrin. Ajit will support Arijit as an advisor until May 2025 to ensure continuity in the company’s success, before retiring. With this structured handover, Thieme India is well-positioned for the future and can continue to expand its important contribution to Thieme.
