Following Massive Customer and Sales Momentum, Anodot Brings on Andy Fenselau and Amit Levi to Help Accelerate Its Global Ramp

Anodot, the AI-powered analytics company, announced that it has appointed Andy Fenselau as Chief Marketing Officer, based in the company’s Silicon Valley headquarters and Amit Levi as the VP Head of Product, based in the Israel offices. This is the next step in Anodot’s hyper-growth trajectory following a recent $23 million round of funding. Fenselau previously led strategy, marketing and the lead machine at Elastifile and EMC XtremIO, while Levi led the development of data products at Cooladata and Yokee Music before joining Anodot.

In December 2017, Anodot announced a successful $23 million Series B round of funding with investors Redline Capital Management, Aleph Venture Capital and Disruptive Technologies Venture Capital. Anodot is already leveraging this investment to open offices in London and Sydney, to accelerate its sales, marketing and customer success teams, and to further develop its patented machine learning and AI analytics platform. The appointment of Fenselau as the company’s first CMO, based in Silicon Valley, and Levi as the VP Head of Product, based in Israel, is a key part of this next global growth phase.
