Acronis has appointed Mark Wong as its Chief Corporate & Business Development Officer, a role in which he will also serve as General Counsel. The position includes oversight of the companys legal, governance, government and regulatory affairs, as well as Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A).

Wong previously held the role of General Counsel at Acronis from 2010 until 2017, during which time he contributed to establishing the company's legal and governance frameworks amid its international growth phase. His return comes as Acronis continues its expansion efforts.

Before rejoining Acronis, Wong spent almost nine years at a backup and replication software company where he was Senior Vice President of Legal. In that capacity, he led a global legal department that supported operations in 30 countries and oversaw multiple strategic acquisitions during company growth.

In his new position, Wong will manage key strategic growth functions, including legal and governance oversight, government and regulatory affairs, and M&A to support Acronis' development plans.

Jan-Jaap Jager, CEO of Acronis, said, “Marks deep legal expertise and experience scaling global technology companies make him an exceptional addition to our leadership team. Having worked with Mark previously, we know firsthand his ability to build strong governance and legal frameworks while supporting strategic growth initiatives. As Acronis continues to expand rapidly, his leadership will be instrumental in guiding key corporate and business development efforts.”

Mark Wong said, “Im excited to return to Acronis at a hyper-growth time for the company. Acronis has proven to continue to innovate while expanding its global footprint, and I look forward to working with the leadership team to strengthen our governance, pursue strategic opportunities, and support the companys next phase of growth.”
