He is already proving his enthusiasm for the role, meeting with customers and building rewarding relationships and his customer-centric approach means that their needs are consistently being met."

Working with Gcore means being at the heart of the AI revolution, allowing enterprise customers to maximise their opportunities, and compete at the highest level."
