Harmonia Holdings Group, a Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center-located software company, has appointed Damon Griggs, executive partner at Madison Dearborn Partners, as CEO and chairman of its board of directors.
The executive move is part of MDP’s recent investment in Harmonia to accelerate its strategy to become a digital transformation provider for federal government organizations, Harmonia said Monday.

Harmonia will have the resources to build expertise and develop leadership roles to accelerate its growth
strategy, which we expect will deliver many benefits to our customers and employees,” said Pallabi Saboo and Jai Saboo, co-founder of Harmonia.
