Loop AI Labs Hires Data Analytics Industry Veteran as New VP, Channel Sales and Alliances

SAN FRANCISCO - April 22, 2017 - PRLog -- Loop AI Labs, a Silicon Valley company ranked as a top-tier provider of cognitive computing technologies, is welcoming Joe Napoli, former IBM executive, to its growing global team as Vice President, Channel Sales and Alliances to help address the exploding demand for cognitive solutions across large organizations.

With over 30 years of experience in managing channel and strategic alliances, and over six years with IBM, Joe is excited to dive into a new offering: that of unsupervised human capacity cognitive computing.

Formerly a leadership member of the worldwide analytics sales team at IBM, his efforts grew the footprint of the IBM Big Data product portfolio across select global accounts representing multiple millions in annual sales. He led the IBM Latin America sales initiatives from the ground up for the IBM Netezza Data Warehouse Appliance product line and managed the team that introduced it across Southern and Eastern Europe; a strategic accomplishment which contributed to Netezza Corp's acquisition by IBM.

Joe says, "I am elated to be joining the Loop AI Labs team. I am looking forward to drawing on my global experiences to lead clients into reaping the benefits of cognitive solutions within their organizations. Pick a vexing business problem - one pilot is all it takes to undisputedly validate the benefits which our cognitive technology brings to the enterprise."

Joe's enriched background in international strategic alliances and sales experiences provide him the ability to foster relationships and technical conversations which enable clients and partners alike to move toward shared visions. His experience across key markets across the globe give him a worldly view of industry trends and benefits that are relevant to all within the ever evolving technology ecosystem.

Loop AI Labs' CEO GM Calafiore notes: "We're delighted to have such an experienced Data Analytics industry expert spearheading our channel and alliances operations. Joe's solid previous commercial experience in the distribution of high-end data appliances is instrumental as we scale Loop AI Labs' business."
