Capriza Expands Executive Team with Appointments of Chief Sales Officer and Vice President of Marketing
Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) December 16, 2014 -- Capriza, a disruptive SaaS-based enterprise mobility platform vendor, today announced the appointment of two key hires that will strengthen its executive bench to support the company through its next phase of accelerated market growth. Olivier Gachot joins Capriza as its new Chief Sales Officer (CSO) and Ty Lim comes on board as Vice President of Marketing.
Capriza is experiencing unprecedented growth as it continues to strike a chord with industry-leading, blue chip companies spanning a broad range of industries – from financial services to professional services to technology and beyond. Its platform is the first and only one that can take existing business applications (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Salesforce, or Microsoft) in their current state and mobilize them — with zero APIs, zero coding, and zero integration at a fraction of the cost and fraction of the time required.
“We’re very pleased to have Olivier and Ty join our executive team. Both bring an exceptional level of proven expertise needed to propel the company forward to its next growth phase,” stated Yuval Scarlat, Capriza’s co-founder and CEO. “They both share the company’s enthusiasm and commitment to establishing Capriza as the de-facto standard for mobilizing business applications within every enterprise globally.”
As Capriza’s CSO, Olivier Gachot will continue to accelerate market penetration and expand its customer base. With vast experience successfully scaling young companies through hyper-growth stages, Gachot is a perfect fit for Capriza’s leadership team. He joins Capriza from Spredfast, a fast-growing social marketing platform, where he served as CSO and played an integral role helping define the company’s modern social market. Previous to Spredfast, Gachot led sales at Skire, a leader in cloud-based solutions for managing capital projects, facilities and real estate, which was subsequently acquired by Oracle. He has also held senior sales management positions at LiveOps, IBM, Lombardi as well as several other B2B technology companies.
As Capriza’s Vice President of Marketing, Ty Lim will be responsible for Capriza’s market development and demand strategy. Lim brings a unique blend of high velocity consumer marketing and B2B enterprise marketing experience. Previous to Capriza, Lim served as Vice President of Marketing at Druva, where he played a pivotal role in scaling the company to a recognized leader in enterprise endpoint data protection. Prior to Druva, he founded Cypher Media, a hyper-growth digital marketing agency and previously held senior marketing roles at several B2C and B2B technology companies.
