Paul Klinkby-Silver VP EMEA for Virtensys
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on Thu, October 15th, 2009
Most recently with the same position at EqualLogic
VirtenSys, Ltd announced the appointment of Paul Klinkby-Silver as vice president of Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA).
In this role, he will build on the strong customers’ demand in the region and lead the company’s aggressive sales and marketing expansion strategy. Klinkby-Silver will be part of the VirtenSys team at Storage Expo 2009, on October 14-15, 2009, at London Olympia to demonstrate the company’s recently announced I/O virtualization switches.
Klinkby-Silver has more than 25 years of sales and management experience in helping high-tech companies expand their business to international markets. Most recently, he was vice president of EMEA for EqualLogic, a storage solution vendor. In this role, he successfully established EqualLogic in Europe, and played a major part in the company’s growth, which ultimately led to its acquisition by Dell. Prior to EqualLogic, he was general manager of EMEA for Intransa, and, before that, he was CEO of Avanti Europe.
“Paul joins VirtenSys with an impressive track record of growing revenues and understanding of customer needs; his drive and experience with customer deployments in our target markets align with our company’s sales objectives,” said Ahmet Houssein, president and CEO at VirtenSys. “Our I/O virtualization switches were very well received by customers in the EMEA region, resulting in early successes and very strong pull from the market. The addition of Paul to our team will cultivate existing partner and customer relationships and accelerate the company’s EMEA revenue growth. ”
“I am pleased to join the VirtenSys team and help to bring its I/O virtualization solutions to the EMEA market,” said Paul Klinkby-Silver. “VirtenSys is well-positioned to grow its customer base in this region. As IT budgets are continuously getting smaller, the VirtenSys solutions help improve data center efficiency, free up critical resources, and reduce cost and power without disrupting current processes. VirtenSys has brought to market a product at the right time to serve as a platform to optimize server networking and storage connectivity, and become a catalyst to the next-generation green IT data centers.”
As part of its strategy to grow its presence in the EMEA market, Virtensys will showcase its I/O virtualization switches, the VirtenSys VIO 4000 Series, at the Storage Expo 2009. The VIO 4000 series recently won the Best New Technology award at VMworld 2009 in San Francisco, CA.
