Cohesity APJ sales leadership appointment

Overview

Cohesity announced that Peter Hanna will become Vice President of Sales and General Manager for its Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) region, based in Hong Kong, effective 1 August 2026. The appointment was highlighted as a strategic move to drive sales strategy, technical execution, channel operations and growth across markets such as Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, ASEAN nations, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

A follow‑up release reiterated the promotion, noting that the role is newly created and will also cover India and Greater China. Cohesity emphasized the APJ market’s “tremendous growth potential” and linked the hire to increasing investment in headcount, enablement and technical innovation as AI adoption and cyber threats rise.

Both releases underscore Hanna’s two‑decade background in security‑solution sales, including prior leadership positions at VMware and Dell EMC, and his reporting line to senior vice president and international general manager Mark Nutt.
