Mark Clayton VP AsiaPac, DAtto

DAtto Holding Corp. appointed Mark Clayton as VP, AsiaPac at DAtto, responsible for delivering security solutions to MSPs in the region.

Based out of DAtto’s Singapore office, he will drive go-to-market efforts across AsiaPac and expand its footprint in the region. In addition, he will be responsible for driving business growth and capturing the region’s enormous opportunity by leveraging MSPs and indirect channels to market.

With over 3 decades of experience in the enterprise technology industry – including 10 years of which were spent in Asia – he has a track record of delivering complex IT solutions to global enterprises and service providers. Prior to joining DAtto, he held leadership positions in management, operations, and sales functions for global technology leaders such as Nutanix, Dell Technologies, and Cisco in North America and Asia. He was most recently VP overseeing AsiaPac Japan and China (APJC) service provider sales at Nutanix, where he established and grew the company’s MSP business into a multi-million dollar business unit.

“Home to some of the world’s largest digital economies, SMEs in AsiaPac are in critical need of reliable security solutions,” said Sanjay Singh, CRO. “I am pleased to welcome Mark to the team to accelerate the market presence in this region. His deeply entrenched understanding of regional business requirements, combined with extensive strategic and sales experience, will be a key asset to delivering important security solutions to this market.“

According to IDC, AsiaPac is leading the global shift to digital business, accelerated by disruption from the pandemic. It is forecasted that 1 in 3 companies in the region will generate more than 30% of their revenues from digital products and services by 2023. To fortify their businesses, vital organisations need to invest in security, DR, and network management capabilities.

“SMEs are faced with similar cybersecurity challenges as large enterprises; however, their ability to confront these threats is impeded by limited IT resources,” said Clayton.
