About Matt Watts – Data Strategist & Director of Technology NetApp

Matt Watts - Director, Technology and Strategy EMEA at NetApp

I have been with NetApp for 14 years, but in the IT industry for much longer, in fact I have more than 25 years of IT experience. I work closely with the Office of the CTO, Product Operations and Marketing teams at NetApp, but I spend most of my time at events or with businesses articulating NetApp’s Strategy and the business value of IT.

This is my personal blog and does not necessarily represent the views of my employer.
