Corda Names Chris Lundell New CEO

Industry Veteran Responsible for Expanding Corporate Strategy and Growing the Enterprise Dashboard Business

LINDON, Utah--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Data visualization pioneer Corda (www.corda.com) today announced the appointment of software industry veteran Chris Lundell as president and chief executive officer.

“Corda delivers world-class products in one of the fastest-growing technology market segments. The next step in the company’s evolution will be the rapid expansion of a growing ecosystem of marquee enterprise customers, channel partners and system integrators.”

Lundell comes to Corda – which delivers enterprise dashboard solutions to many of the world’s largest organizations – with more than 25 years experience in software sales, marketing and management, most recently as vice president and general manager of Asia Pacific operations for LANDesk. As CEO of Corda, Lundell will be responsible for growing the data visualization and enterprise dashboard software business, particularly through the addition of channel partners and system integrators.

With the appointment of Lundell, Corda founder Neal Williams will continue to act as the company’s chairman and chief strategist, focusing on business development and product strategy.

“The enterprise dashboard and data visualization software market is poised for rapid growth, as more and more companies are demanding the kind of visibility that only real-time operational dashboards can provide,” Williams said. “Chris brings the right mix of business experience and marketing savvy to help Corda capture that opportunity.”

During more than seven years at LANDesk, a leading systems management software vendor, Lundell managed the company’s direct sales, marketing and channel relationships in the Asia Pacific region, which enjoyed double-digit revenue growth over that period. Prior to LANDesk, Lundell served in a variety of roles at Novell, including head of North American marketing, where he cultivated relationships with many of Novell’s largest customers and partners.

“I’m extremely optimistic and excited to be part of a very talented team at Corda, where our number one priority will be to ensure that the company is always customer focused and partner friendly,” Lundell said. “Corda delivers world-class products in one of the fastest-growing technology market segments. The next step in the company’s evolution will be the rapid expansion of a growing ecosystem of marquee enterprise customers, channel partners and system integrators.”

Lundell and other Corda executives, partners and customers will participate in the Corda user conference, Visual Evolution, beginning Sept. 14 in Philadelphia and Sept. 21 in Las Vegas. Event information is available at www.corda.com/corda-data-visualization-conference-2010.php.
