Cyberhaven expands presence in Europe with a new sales headquarters and distributor partnerships.

In this article

I am thrilled to announce that Cyberhaven is expanding our operations in Europe with a new EMEA sales headquarters and partnerships with key distributors in the region. It's a significant milestone for us, one that reiterates our commitment to the continent where the company was born, and an affirmation of the exceptional value we've been able to bring to our users globally.

Cyberhaven started with humble roots at EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland. A dream, a brilliant technical team of PhDs, and a whole lot of ambition and determination led the company across the Atlantic to Silicon Valley where we’ve grown beyond anyone’s wildest expectations from those early days. Today, we’re one of the fastest-growing startups, with customers on six continents and a significant engineering presence in Europe that has powered our innovations in data security. We never forgot our roots and always intended to expand our presence in Europe. Now, we’re turning that aspiration into a reality.

Cyberhaven is opening a new go-to-market headquarters in the vibrant, dynamic city of London. This decision isn't just about geographical proximity—it's about aligning with the energy, talent, and innovation that London exemplifies. It's about tapping into the heart of European business. We're excited to bring our unique brand of innovation closer to our European users and to create opportunities for collaboration and partnerships on a scale that we've never had before.

But that's not all! I’m also excited to announce that we've inked a distribution deal with Ignition Technology, one of the largest and most respected distributors in the EMEA region. This partnership will enable us to reach millions more users and potential customers across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. We're certain that our collaboration with Ignition will take us to new heights and create an unparalleled user experience for our customers.

The regulatory landscape in Europe is evolving quickly. Just as the emergence of privacy regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has altered the security landscape, we anticipate that regulations surrounding novel technologies like generative AI will do the same. With these changes comes a growing need for data security solutions that can help companies navigate these complex requirements. Our expansion aims to meet this need, helping companies across Europe, and the world, effectively secure their data in a rapidly changing regulatory environment.

This is an exciting chapter in our growth story. The expansion of our go-to-market operations in Europe demonstrates our commitment to operating as a truly global data security company and supporting our large multinational corporations. Our goal is to empower companies around the world to protect their most valuable asset—their data. We are immensely grateful for the continued trust and support from our customers, partners, and team. Together, we will continue to shape the future of data security.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue on this exciting journey!
