Christian Lang EMEA VP Sales, Commvault

Commvault Systems, Inc. announced the appointment of Christian Lang as VP sales of Europe, Middle East and Africa.

Responsible for leading and driving the company’s continued growth in EMEA, he joins Commvault bringing 26 years’ experience in the technology solutions industry with a track record of building software- and SaaS-based IT businesses across Europe.

“I look forward to Christian bringing his proven expertise to supplement our already very successful EMEA team,” said Ron Miiller, SVP, WW sales, Commvault. “Not only does he bring experience in key vertical sectors that are critical to EMEA expansion, but also a clear idea about the evolving requirements of our customer base, through multiple, strategic, channel and enterprise sales roles across the region.”

Lang comes to Commvault from his most recent position as GM and VP automotive sales EMEA at IHS Inc., having driven significant fiscal achievement and revenue growth. He also held senior leadership positions for multi-nationals across EMEA, most notably over 13 years with Autodesk.

“Commvault globally and in EMEA is an expanding organisation and we are recognised, by our customers, partners and leading industry analysts as leader in the market due to our breadth and quality of solutions,” stated Lang. “I personally see great opportunities – especially given internal upheaval among our major competitors – for greater strategic alliances to be forged and wider business value delivered to end-users.“
