Keynote Systems, a leader in e-business performance management services, has appointed Haran Sold, as VP and MD for the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region for Keynote. In this position, Sold assumes responsibility for sales, operations and professional services, including Keynote’s service level management (SLM) and customer experience management (CEM) solutions to expand and increase Keynote’s market share outside of the United States. Sold was formerly director of product marketing and business development for the manufacturing and distribution sector across EMEA for Oracle/PeopleSoft.

“The e-business market across the EMEA region has matured slower than in the US, but it is now at the point of explosive growth,” said Sold. “I welcome the opportunity to expand on the success and reputation for accuracy and independence that Keynote enjoys in the States and to help build a market leading Keynote EMEA organization through aggressive growth and acquisitions.”
