Prior to that, van Zijl held leadership roles at Cologix Inc., where he expanded the company’s channel program, secured strategic partnerships, and grew sales by more than 40% year over year.
“Andre’s expertise in scaling sales organizations, optimizing revenue strategies and building successful enterprise partnerships is exactly what DartPoints needs as we enter our next phase of growth,” said Scott Willis, CEO of DartPoints. “We are confident that his leadership will empower our sales team to secure new opportunities in the enterprise market and position DartPoints as a key player in data center colocation and connectivity.”
