Veeam Software has announced two senior appointments in its South African business.
Tracy Lona joins Veeam as territory manager for South Africa’s commercial business.
Before joining Veeam, Lona spent over a decade at Red Hat, where she led regional expansion, achieving and exceeding quotas alongside the partner ecosystem and channel across multiple countries. Her earlier roles include senior sales positions at Dell and Bytes.
Abdullah Mohamed joins as technical account manager. Prior to Veeam, Mohamed held engineering and customer success roles at Mimecast and BCX.
“South African organisations are under growing pressure to strengthen their cyber resilience and recovery capabilities, and Veeam’s extensive local presence, underpinned by the largest regionally focused team of any data resilience vendor, supports a highly capable channel ecosystem that plays a central role in delivering that value,” says Brendan Widlake, regional director at Veeam Software South Africa.
“Tracy and Abdullah bring the market-building experience, partner focus, and technical depth we need as we continue to scale our presence locally.”
