Hitachi Vantara, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd.
(TSE:6501), today announced new appointments to its global
leadership team: Mark Ablett has been named senior vice president
of global go-to-market (GTM) strategy and Daniel Chong has been
named senior vice president of Asia Pacific (APAC). Both will
report to the company’s chief revenue officer, Hans-Peter Klaey.
Ablett previously served as Hitachi Vantara’s senior vice
president (SVP) of APAC, where he helped Hitachi Vantara’s APAC
theatre to achieve record growth. In his new role, Ablett will be
responsible for developing the company’s global GTM strategy,
partnering with Hitachi Vantara’s customers to help them
successfully navigate and execute complex digital transformation
journeys. Prior to joining Hitachi, Ablett held executive positions
with Juniper Networks and SpectraLink, among others.
Chong will assume Ablett’s former post as SVP of APAC at Hitachi
Vantara. He previously served as the company’s vice president and
general manager (GM) of mainland China and Taiwan, where he grew
revenue in the region by more than 150%. During Chong’s tenure as
GM, the company has been recognized as a “Great Place to Work” in
the region for the past five consecutive years. Prior to Hitachi,
Chong held senior management positions at Oracle, PeopleSoft, BMC
and Informix, where he focused on sales, marketing, business
development and company management.
Ablett and Chong will further fortify Hitachi Vantara’s
executive team, which the company has been aggressively expanding
with experienced talent in recent months. The company recently
tapped Klaey, an enterprise software industry veteran, to lead
global sales and GTM, appointed former GE Digital COO Brad Surak as
its Chief Product and Strategy Officer.
“Delivering exceptional customer experiences is incredibly
important to Hitachi Vantara,” said Klaey. “Mark and Daniel have
done exactly that in their time here. They have a deep
understanding of our business and the needs of our customers and
partners. Their work will be crucial in helping Hitachi customers
unlock the full potential and value of their data.”
