Gravitas Technology, Inc., a technology services firm specializing in the alternative investment, has expanded into Connecticut, hoping to gain the business of hedge funds flooding into the state to take advantage of its tax laws.
“The expansion to Connecticut is fuelled exclusively by this immediate need to service the rapidly growing alternative investments market of Fairfield County,” said Jayesh Punater, CEO and found of Gravitas. “Recognizing our clients’ strategies to expand their demographic range and relocate to Connecticut for lifestyle and tax reasons, it was a natural fit for Gravitas to follow suit.”
To lead the new office, Gravitas appointed Sunil Wadhwa, Gravitas’ client services director and former Goldman Sachs technology executive, and Jessica Golle, recently joining the team from Reuters America to the Connecticut office. Prior to joining Gravitas, Wadhwa spent more than 15 years at Goldman Sachs and was responsible for supporting all technology.
