Data Analytics provider Qlik has appointed Geoff Thomas as Senior Vice President for the Asia Pacific. Based in Singapore, in this role, Thomas will be responsible for leading the company’s business growth and operations in the region. He will also oversee go-to-market strategy and channel partnerships in APAC.
Prior to joining Qlik, Thomas held key leadership positions with D2L, Polycom, Juniper Networks and Microsoft and most recently served as Vice President of Asia Pacific and Japan at OneLogin.
“We’re at a new stage of our business with our end-to-end data integration and analytics capabilities, and our focus is on transforming our customers’ business through data to solve their most challenging problems. We’re confident Geoff will fully leverage the market opportunity, and I look forward to working closely with him and the team to help customers realize and unlock the full value of data,” said Christopher Jones, Executive Vice President, Worldwide Sales at Qlik.
“I’m excited about the opportunity to expand Qlik’s business in this diverse market and region. Qlik is well poised to become the market leader in the Asia Pacific given the region’s burgeoning opportunities, with many enterprises yet to fully scale the use of data and analytics to their advantage. With our investments into the region and strong execution, I believe we can bring Qlik to even greater heights,” stated Thomas.
