Sandy Hogan Resigns from VMware
Two days after learning of Orban’s AWS exit, the cloud sector learned that Sandy Hogan had resigned from VMware. Hogan planned to depart on July 6 after a little more than two years as head of VMware’s channel program.
The timing struck observers as suspiciously close to the announcement that Broadcom will buy VMware for $61 billion. However, a spokesperson told Channel Futures, Hogan’s leaving “is a personal career decision not related to Broadcom.”
For now, Ricky Cooper will take over as lead for VMware’s Worldwide Partner and Commercial Organization. He comes to the role after serving as vice president for global and transformational partners.
Channel Futures has reached out to Hogan for an interview but has yet to hear back. We’ll keep an eye on her LinkedIn to see where she lands.
