She joins following a four-year stint at Microsoft, where she served as corporate and business communications lead.

She has more than 16 years experience in the technology and marketing field, holding local and regional marketing roles at telecom operators such as SingTel, M1 and phone manufacturer, Motorola.

“Lena joins an already diverse and dynamic team in Singapore, and I have full confidence in her leadership of this team toward a stronger growth trajectory,” he said.
