ARMONK, N.Y., July 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Kyndryl, the
independent public company that will be created following the
separation of IBM's Managed Infrastructure Services business, today
announced that it has appointed Matt
Milton as Kyndryl's President in the U.S.
Mr. Milton's appointment is a key step in creating Kyndryl's new
global leadership model, which has been simplified to accelerate
decision-making and bring expertise and skills closer to its
customers.
"Kyndryl will organize around our customers and ensure we are
providing access to senior leadership and the best talent and
skills in each market," said Kyndryl Chief Executive Officer
Martin Schroeter. "I am pleased that
Matt will lead our team in the U.S., a key market for Kyndryl. He
is an inspiring leader who is committed to helping our customers
reach their peak digital performance and achieve their biggest
ambitions."
Mr. Milton is currently General Manager, Financial Services
Market, for IBM Global Technology Services, Americas. He is
responsible for partnering with financial industry organizations to
leverage data, cloud, cognitive and security technologies to
modernize and run critical infrastructure. In this role, Mr. Milton
has extensive experience creating strategic partnerships that
create long-term value for both parties. He has been with IBM
(NYSE: IBM) for nearly 20 years and was previously General
Manager for the Communications market in the Americas.
"Supporting our customers' technological transformations is a
great responsibility because these are the vital systems that power
human progress," said Mr. Milton. "I am thrilled to lead the
world-class U.S. team for Kyndryl. Together we will partner with
customers to address their toughest challenges and modernize and
run their most essential infrastructure."
To ensure not only its leadership but also its offerings are
closely aligned with customer needs, Kyndryl also announced it will
create an integrated global practice for customers, combining
managed services, advisory services and implementation. The company
is organizing into six global practices, including Cloud; Core
Enterprise & zCloud; Applications, Data & AI; Digital
Workplace; Security & Resiliency; and Network & Edge.
These announcements are important milestones that will prepare
Kyndryl for future success – nothing will change with the IBM
Global Technology Services business until after responsibility
passes to the Kyndryl team. Other key leadership and reporting
structure announcements will follow in the near future.
Kyndryl designs, runs and manages the most modern, efficient and
reliable technology infrastructure for the world's most important
businesses and organizations, with the industry's most experienced
services experts. Its previously announced separation is expected
to occur by the end of 2021. For more information, visit
