Prysm brings in OpenText vet as head of Europe sales
Tom Blenkin will develop Prysm's Europe go-to-market strategy
Prysm has appointed ex-OpenTexter Tom Blenkin as its vice president of sales in Europe.
Blenkin will be responsible for helping bolster the digital workplace provider's footprint in the region, developing its go-to-market strategy finding new business and helping build better relationships with the company's existing companies in the region.
“From the start, I have been very impressed with the strength of the Prysm brand and its technology. It has a very strong footing within the digital workplace market in North America and the potential to continue this growth in the European market is an exciting prospect,” Blenkin said.
“The collaborative workspace market is growing at a rapid rate, particularly in Europe as businesses get to grips with the productivity and engagement benefits that it provides, and I can’t wait to spearhead this expansion deeper into Europe.”
Blenkin will bring more than 10 years' expertise in the European software market to the table, including senior sales roles at BrightTalk, HP and OpenText, where he led teams and focused on growing the digital experience business in Europe.
“Tom brings an impressive track-record of driving sales in the European market to the Prysm team. His knowledge and experience in the software industry will ensure that our customers are deriving the best possible value from our solution,” said Jason Smith, senior vice president of global sales at Prysm.
“We’re thrilled to have Tom bring his expertise to Prysm as we look to strategically grow our brand across the EMEA region.”
