Rebecca Jacoby has joined Quantum’s Board of Directors where she will serve on the Audit Committee and Leadership and Compensation Committee.
The company said it is expanding its product portfolio in the high-speed processing and management of video and video-like data.
Jacoby previously served as senior vice president of operations at Cisco Systems, leading the company’s global operations and overseeing IT, supply chain, security and trust, global procurement, and employee services and workplace resources.
Jamie Lerner, president and CEO of Quantum, said: “With the company now restored to responsible and accountable governance, and with continued significant shareholder representation on the Board, Quantum is turning its focus to growth.
“With experience as both CIO and senior vice president of operations at Cisco, a highly respected business leader, Rebecca offers a track record of operational excellence and technology leadership that will be a real asset to Quantum’s Board. Rebecca brings greater diversity to our Board, and a technical depth that will be valued.”
“With the restatement completed and new governance practices now in place, and with a sharper focus on innovation and profitable sales, Quantum has been on a roll with a brisk pace of new product development,” added Jacoby. “This is a particularly exciting time to join Quantum’s Board, and I look forward to applying my experience to help Quantum grow and realise its true potential.”
