Title: PacketFront Hires Sales VP

STOCKHOLM -- Swedish IP networking company PacketFront announces the recruitment of Per Olof Stark as Vice President Sales. Per Olof is recruited to PacketFront from his position as Senior Account Manager at Cisco Systems.

Per Olof began his career at IBM, as Networking Sales Engineer, directly recruited from Royal Institute of Technology, KTH, in Stockholm where he studied electrical engineering, computer science and networking. Innovative SE work at IBMÕs sales office led to Per Olof's transition into sales, where he resumed responsibility for governmental agencies and municipalities. During this period, Per Olof developed government agencies into one of IBM largest customer segments. He furthermore participated in IBM European Social Security board, where his responsibility was to develop business in that area.

After studies at IBM's Client Executive programme at INSEAD in France, Per Olof was recruited to Cisco Systems, thereby ending his 11 year career at IBM.

Recently recruited to PacketFront, Per Olof ended his 4 year career at Cisco. "We are very glad to have recruited Per Olof as head of our sales department," says Martin Thunman, CEO of PacketFront. "His experience within sales and account management, as well as Per Olof's skills to think "out of the box", will bring our organisation even more focus on the needs of our customers."
