Alef, the edge internet leader, on Monday announced the appointments of Mike Mulica to CEo and Ganesh Sundaram to CEO of Alef Innovations in response to the company’s accelerated growth and the demand for continued innovation in the 5G edge economy.
Mulica has served as Executive Chairman of the Board for Alef since 2018 and has advised the leadership team on the massive market opportunities within the emerging edge computing ecosystem and the impact on the decentralized internet. As CEO, Mulica will lead Alef into its next chapter of expansion, following the launch of the Private Edge Platform.
Mulica succeeds Sundaram, who previously served as CEO after founding Alef in 2014. In his new capacity as CEO of Alef Innovations, Sundaram will focus his expertise on work that will deepen Alef’s intellectual leadership as the pioneer of Mobile Edge products and technologies. Alef holds the seminal Intellectual Property in the Mobile Edge, and Alef Innovations will build depth and breadth to the original edge thesis with a focus on introducing new technologies that will drive the expansion of an open systems community of edge collaborators worldwide.
Ganesh Sundaram, founder of Alef and CEO of Alef Innovations
Mike Mulica is one of the most experienced leaders in the telecommunications and mobility sectors and is well equipped to usher in the next evolution of Alef to further operationalize what an open, 5G edge infrastructure can do for enterprises and developers.
Mike Mulica, CEO of Alef
Alef is poised to change the way enterprises do business by eliminating the complexities that have bogged down progress. By taking control back, companies can launch their own private networks and build edge applications on their terms. I am excited and honored to continue the journey at this inflection point for Alef with the support of Ganesh and the rest of the executive team.
