San Francisco, CA – May 3, 2017 Scality, world leader in object and cloud storage, today announced that CEO Jérôme Lecat garnered a Silver Stevie® Award for Executive of the Year in the computer software category in the 15th Annual American Business Awards. A two-time Stevie Award winner and storage pioneer, Mr. Lecat was recognized for superior executive leadership, product innovation, and driving broad enterprise adoption of object and cloud storage with Scality RING via a compelling software-defined model.

“Jérôme is laser-focused on strategic business development and driving growth by leveraging strong relationships with alliance partners. Under his direction, Scality ended last year with 85 percent year-over-year revenue growth with 76 percent serviced through 25 global alliance and channel partners, including Fortune 500 vendors, Cisco, Dell, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise,” said Paul Turner, CMO at Scality. “Scality was named a global leader in the distributed file system and object storage markets by two leading industry analyst firms, which attests to his strong, technology-driven, and thoughtful leadership.”
