“We’re thrilled to welcome Brian as our new VP of Microsoft Alliance & Strategic Partnerships”
“We’re thrilled to welcome Brian as our new VP of Microsoft Alliance & Strategic Partnerships,” said Hunter Madeley, CEO at Vena. “In this role, Brian will work to enhance the value of the Vena-Microsoft relationship, accelerating innovation and product development to meet our customers’ evolving needs. His deep expertise and leadership will play a pivotal role in Vena becoming the most widely adopted planning platform in the Microsoft ecosystem. We empower Finance teams who love Excel and organizations investing in Microsoft to achieve more, and Brian’s mandate will be to advance that mission.”
Kobleur brings nearly 30 years of experience with Microsoft and the Microsoft ecosystem to Vena. He spent 15 years at Microsoft, including three years in Germany to run the company’s consulting services practice. He then moved to Citrix and scaled the global Microsoft Alliance team, which drove triple-digit revenue growth for seven consecutive fiscal years. He played a key role in the company being named Microsoft’s top global ISV for Co-sell and Azure-consumed revenue. After leaving Citrix, Kobleur founded VelociPartner LLC, a technology consultancy for Microsoft partners based in San Diego, California.
Vena remains the only Complete Planning platform natively integrated with Microsoft 365, and its marketplace already hosts preconfigured and partner solutions from a number of global companies across a wide variety of industries, including Vena for Legal by ProLytics, Vena for Franchising by Citrin Cooperman and Vena for Senior Living by Delbridge Solutions. Vena’s close strategic relationship with Microsoft has produced key features, such as Vena for Microsoft PowerPoint and Vena Copilot for FP&A, both launched earlier this year.
