OTTAWA, Nov. 13, 2017 /CNW/ - Leonovus Inc.
("Leonovus") (TSXV: LTV) is pleased to announce the hiring
of Eric Lee, formerly the Oracle
Global Account Director for hardware, software, cloud and
applications sold internationally through the massive Tech Data
network.
Mr. Lee starts with Leonovus on November
13, 2017, as Vice President of Business Development for the
USA. He has thirty years of sales
and sales management experience with companies such as Oracle,
StorageTek, Sun, CISCO, Memorex and Southwestern Bell. He completed
his BSc Industrial Engineering at Northwestern
University, an MBA from Southern
Illinois University and lives in Boca Raton, Florida.
"We are very fortunate to add Eric to the team. The timing is
perfect with the closing of our financing and our need for customer
acquisition outside of Canada. His
extensive experience and contacts, specifically in the cloud
software and storage technology markets, will accelerate our growth
in the USA and other locations

adopter customers, hire and build a team of four to six sales
Directors across the USA, and
recruit potential channel partners," said Michael Gaffney,

I am excited to join a company with such incredible software
