Streaming and content delivery software solutions company Varnish Software has announced the appointment of Fredrik Borg as its new chief executive officer.
He has been tasked with driving continued expansion across the global content delivery market, said the company.
Borg has previously held roles at Nordic telecom infrastructure provider, Global Connect and multinational telecom firm, Telenor, where he led its operations for mobile networks, broadband and TV.
He succeeds Lars Larsson, who led Varnish Software for over 10 years, and who will transition to a new role focused on customer acquisition and strategic partnerships.
“I am very excited to join Varnish Software and am deeply impressed with what Lars and the team have achieved so far,” said Borg. “Given the unique position that Varnish fills as a leader in caching and content delivery, I am convinced we will continue to grow the business profitably. More importantly, we will continue to focus on listening closely to our customers and evolving to meet their diverse needs.”
“I am thrilled to see Fredrik joining Varnish Software and believe he is the ideal choice to take the company forward,” added Larsson. “Under his leadership, Varnish is set to become a leader in the emerging content delivery and edge compute sector.”
