• Mark Nutt, SVP International Sales, Cohesity
  “Our mission at Cohesity is simple: to protect, secure, and provide insights into the world’s data. The largest organisations in Europe, and across the world, rely on us for their operational resilience. With the coming together of Veritas and Cohesity to become the new leader in AI-powered data security, we look forward to further engaging with all key industry influencers and thought leaders across Europe through The IT Press Tour, to tell our story. With the ongoing evolution of the state of the industry and increasing cyber related, data security risks, faced by enterprises and large public sector organisations around the world, there is no better time to ensure they understand Cohesity’s new solutions and roadmap that can deliver business resilience.”

• Paul Bloch, President and Co-founder, DDN
  “We’re excited to join The IT Press Tour this June in Palo Alto and share how DDN is helping enterprises and research organizations accelerate innovation through data intelligence. This event provides a unique opportunity to engage with influential members of the media and highlight the groundbreaking work we’re doing in AI, HPC, and analytics to meet the demands of the most data-intensive environments.”

• Tom Paquette, SVP, GM, and member of the Board of Directors, Graid Technology
  “We invented the future of storage with SupremeRAID™, and 2025 marks a pivotal moment as we expand that vision to support the full spectrum of AI-driven and data-intensive workloads. Our technology now powers everything from high-performance desktops to large-scale enterprise and HPC environments—delivering maximum SSD speeds, uninterrupted performance, and the kind of infrastructure efficiency that helps our customers accelerate insights through faster, more resilient access to their data. As we prepare to roll out new products optimized for AI servers, HPC deployments, and simplified integration across platforms, we’re excited to offer a preview to the IT Press Tour of how Graid Technology continues to lead the way in GPU-based RAID innovation.”

• Vatsal Rastogi, Co-founder, Lucidity
  “As cloud adoption accelerates and public cloud spend surges, storage inefficiencies have become a hidden drain on enterprise budgets, performance, and agility. To avoid performance and availability risks, most organizations overprovision storage—resulting in just 30% actual utilization. At Lucidity, we’re solving this for IT leaders, DevOps teams, and FinOps professionals by delivering real-time automation, visibility, and control over cloud storage. Our unique multi-cloud platform continuously right-sizes storage based on actual usage, with zero downtime or disruption. Today, some of the world’s leading airlines, retailers, and financial institutions rely on Lucidity to cut storage costs by up to 70%, reclaim valuable IT hours, improve performance, and eliminate manual storage management. We’re excited to join The IT Press Tour and look forward to engaging conversations as we showcase our technology and the value we deliver to enterprise customers.”

• Michael Wu, GM and President, Phison US
  “As we kicked off the year pushing storage boundaries, including bringing Pascari enterprise storage to the moon, we’re excited to participate in IT Press Tour and share what’s next at Phison as we celebrate 25 years. Many organizations are shifting to do more with less, whether it’s managing shrinking budgets, addressing limited space or time – this occasionally requires a custom solution, one of our specialties at Phison. We have more in store with our Pascari and aiDAPTIV+ portfolios to enable organizations to address data growth, optimize capacity at scale, and accelerate GenAI access and capabilities.”
