Denodo Appoints Benjamin Henshall as Vice President of ANZ

Sydney, April 26, 2021 - Denodo, the leader in data virtualization, today announced the appointment of Benjamin Henshall, who will fulfil the role of VP for ANZ. Henshall arrives at Denodo after spending 13 years at Red Hat, across a variety of leadership roles, latest as the General Manager of South East Asian Markets.

Henshall will be responsible for developing and accelerating Denodo’s growth in both the Australian and New Zealand markets. This will involve building on existing relationships with customers, as well as expanding the company’s partner ecosystem. Denodo is scaling its operation in the region following a period of steady expansion, and seek to accelerate growth across all markets.

Responsibilities of the newly-created role will include overseeing all facets of sales, marketing, partners relationships, service delivery and post-implementation client success.

“I have been closely following Denodo’s worldwide growth, specifically in the ANZ region for the last few years,” said Benjamin Henshall, Denodo’s newly appointed VP of ANZ. “I personally know the data related pain points of many organizations in the territory and I definitely believe Denodo has the right product to solve many of those problems. My near terms focus will be to build the awareness of Denodo’s product and solution, not only working with my colleagues at Denodo but our amazing partner ecosystem in the ANZ region.”

Henshall’s experience in ANZ-focused and APAC-wide roles for Red hat, coupled with prior experience at BEA Systems and Oracle, will be of great benefit to Denodo during this period of targeted growth and expansion of operations.

“Benjamin arrives at Denodo with an outstanding track record in open platform software and big data integration,” said Angel Vina, CEO and founder of Denodo. “He has extensive experience across the region, and a large, valuable network of contacts from both the local channel and vertical industries across ANZ. We know he will prove to be a valuable asset to the company as we accelerate our growth in the region.”

Henshall’s experience in the implementation of superior data architectures in growing hybrid and multi-cloud deployments models will be a driving force for Denodo’s business plans over the coming months and years.
