New Zealand’s Datagrid announced this week that it has appointed Perrine Dhalluin as its new CEO, replacing Ludovic Hutier. Dhalluin was the CEO at Pacific Islands telecoms firm Intelia, before she left the role in November 2022, joining BW Digital as chief network officer. She has also held positions at Nokia and Ericsson.

Dhalluin, “Datagrid New Zealand data center is going to be a great asset for Southland, taking advantage of renewable energy abundance and natural climate conditions that will make Datagrid the most competitive data storage solution in Oceania. It’s definitely a great challenge for the team and for myself, and we are excited and fully committed to making this project happen.”

Rémi Galasso, founder of Datagrid, added, “Perrine Dhalluin and I have been working together at Intelia for the past 10 years, she is a natural leader and I am very happy she has accepted to lead Datagrid New Zealand.”
