9 Jan, 2023
Crawley, United Kingdom - January 9, 2023 -
Leading cloud-based, real-time call reporting and business insights software company, Akixi, has announced that Mike Wilkinson has joined the company as Chief Product & Marketing Officer (CPMO).
Following the company’s investment and leadership announcement in February 2022, Mike is the latest appointment to the Akixi executive team, where he will work with CEO Craig Decker, and the Axiom Equity and True North Advisory teams to execute the company’s growth strategy and international expansion plans.
With a track record of marketing success and over 30 years’ experience in this industry, Mike joins Akixi from Microsoft where he was previously Principal Program Manager. Mike also previously held marketing and product marketing positions at BroadSoft, working with many of the largest cloud service providers in the world, supporting their go-to-market strategies and accelerating their time to revenue. Mike comments:
“One of the greatest challenges in the UCaaS industry is to closely marry technology to problems faced by businesses. With its business insights product, Akixi has developed a simple yet powerful window into the real-time performance of a UCaaS service, and how that is impacting SMBs or distributed organisations. I’m really looking forward to taking Akixi to the next level by fast-tracking operator deployments and go-to-market strategies, expanding platform integration, and extending the range of engagement solutions.” Craig Decker, CEO of Akixi, also comments:
“Mike has an incredible background and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, helping Akixi to deliver on our product strategy and growth plans, I am delighted to have Mike on board.
