LiveAction has made pivotal appointments to its EMEA leadership team. The strategic hires of Ian Gallagher as Regional Sales Director for Northern Europe, Guntram Allfen as Regional Sales Director for Central Europe, and Sebastien Texier as Regional Sales Director for France, underscore LiveAction's commitment to accelerating growth and customer success across the European region.

With over two decades of selling experience in enterprise and global markets, Ian Gallagher brings a wealth of expertise in networking and security from his enterprise roles at VMware, Extreme Networks and Brocade.

Sebastien Texier, an accomplished veteran with over 25 years of experience in networks, analytics, and cloud computing, joins LiveAction after a successful stint at ThousandEyes, a Cisco company, further strengthening LiveAction's connection to the Cisco ecosystem.

“Ian, Guntram, and Sebastien are exceptional sales leaders with proven success in delivering value to customers and partners in the European market," said Carlos Ferro, Senior Vice President and General Manager of International at LiveAction. “Their appointments strengthen our commitment to providing unparalleled network intelligence and support to enterprises across the region as they navigate increasingly complex networking and security challenges.”
