Infor, the industry cloud company, announced the promotion of Becky Xie to vice president and managing director for Greater China and Korea (GCK). Xie will be responsible for growing Infor’s overall business in the GCK region, and driving customer success and agility in project deliveries.
“Infor sees immense potential in China, a posterchild of market growth and one that is instrumental to the overall success of our business. With the International Monetary Fund lifting China’s 2021 growth forecast this week to a 10-year high, we are excited by the tremendous opportunity to help Chinese companies accelerate innovation and transform their organizations via cloud, mobility, artificial intelligence and IoT,” said Rod Johnson, Infor global president & chief revenue officer. “Becky has made significant contributions to the Infor China business in her eight years with the company. I am confident that her experience, business acumen and strong customer-partner network will help accelerate growth in this region.”
Xie joined Infor in 2013 and boasts 25 years of industry experience, including leadership roles in sales and channel & alliance management.
