AppDirect today announced the appointment of channel veteran Mariane Louvet as its new director of provider management.
Over her two-decade career in the channel, Louvet has led and scaled cybersecurity, cloud, MSP, MSSP, telco, and provider programs at notable companies such as Symantec, Forcepoint, Pax8, and 1Password. In her new role, Louvet will guide provider relationships, align with internal teams, and fortify the marketplace through program development and partnership engagement. Additionally, she will spearhead initiatives to strengthen commercial alignment and provider engagement, helping expand AppDirect’s provider portfolio across all segments.
Louvet joins AppDirect at a pivotal time as it expands its direct and indirect cloud provider distribution across North America and executes on its bold marketplace vision, which includes the recent acquisition of Tackle.io. AppDirect continues to carve a strong, unique path that brings marketplace providers and digital commerce into a single, robust network. Louvet will play a key role in attracting and managing providers as the company accelerates its recruitment of cloud providers in North America.
“AppDirect is building the B2B everything store for technology, where advisors can solve their customers’ business challenges through access to the world’s leading solutions,” said Louvet. “As AppDirect enters this new phase, I’m excited to help bolster our cloud provider programs and expand the opportunities available to partners worldwide.”
