The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) announced on Thursday that Romnish Kapoor has joined NFPA as Regional Sales Manager for the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region, strengthening the organisation’s growing presence across the region.
Kapoor will support NFPA’s continued work to promote fire, electrical, and life safety, and preventing loss due to fire.
Based in Dubai, Kapoor will be responsible for advancing NFPA’s business development efforts, expanding customer relationships, and supporting organisations seeking to improve fire and life safety through the use of NFPA’s internationally recognized safety standards, training, certifications, and related solutions.
The appointment reflects NFPA’s continued investment in the MENA region, where demand for fire and life safety expertise continues to grow amid significant development and infrastructure expansion.
“The Middle East and North Africa remain a strategic priority for NFPA, and we are pleased to welcome Romnish to our regional team,” said Mike Brunzell, NFPA vice president of Global Business Development. “His extensive experience working with customers, regulators, and industry leaders across the region will help us continue delivering the knowledge, resources, and solutions that support safer communities and resilient built environments.”
Kapoor brings more than two decades of experience in fire and life safety, testing, inspection and certification, regulatory compliance, strategic account management and business development. Most recently, he held a series of commercial leadership positions with UL Solutions, where he led regional sales and strategic-account growth initiatives across the Middle East and Africa (MEA) and helped expand the organization’s presence throughout emerging markets. Throughout his career, he has worked closely with manufacturers, contractors, government authorities, regulatory agencies, developers, consultants, and industry stakeholders to advance safety and compliance and market development initiatives across the MEA and Emerging markets.
NFPA has worked for decades in the MENA region to assist governments and industry to advance fire and life safety through its codes and standards, training and certifications, research, and public education. – TradeArabia News Service
