Nasuni Appoints Sam King as Chief Executive Officer

In a significant leadership change, Nasuni, a leading unified-file data platform for hybrid cloud environments, has announced the appointment of Sam King as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) as of April 1, 2025. King succeeds Paul Flanagan, who has announced his retirement after an impressive eight-year tenure at Nasuni. As part of the transition, Flanagan will continue to contribute to the company as the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors.

The timing for this leadership shift comes as Nasuni wraps up another successful year, characterized by robust growth in revenue, customer base, and workforce, accompanied by innovative enhancements to its platform. During his tenure, Flanagan positioned Nasuni as a market leader in the fast-growing file data platform sector. He successfully rolled out differentiated product innovations, integrated key acquisitions to expand the company’s offerings, and fostered an award-winning workplace culture.

In comments about the transition, Flanagan expressed his confidence in King’s leadership capabilities: “I am thrilled to welcome Sam as our new CEO. We could not have found a more qualified and culturally fit person to lead Nasuni into this next phase of growth. The leadership team and I will work closely with Sam to ensure a seamless transition and to continue making Nasuni a great place for our customers and employees.”

King’s appointment marks a new chapter in Nasuni’s ongoing efforts to drive innovation and exceed customer expectations. A seasoned technology leader, King previously served as CEO of Veracode from 2019 to 2024, where she played a pivotal role in transforming the company into a leading application security platform. Recognized as a thought leader in cybersecurity and technology, she has been awarded titles such as EY's Entrepreneur of the Year for New England and Executive of the Year by the Executive Women’s Forum.

Reflecting on her new role, King remarked, “I am honored to join Nasuni as CEO during such an exciting period for the company. I want to thank Paul for his exceptional leadership and congratulate the Nasuni team on having successfully disrupted the enterprise storage systems market with its transformative unified-file data platform. With businesses facing a tripartite challenge of AI adoption, accelerated cloud migration, and support for distributed teams, Nasuni's role as a trusted data steward is increasingly vital. The future belongs to companies with data strategies that enable seamless collaboration while ensuring high security and performance – exactly what Nasuni excels at. I am eager to continue building our strong relationships with customers and partners, understanding their needs, and driving our product innovation forward. Together, we will evolve the Nasuni platform to anticipate market demands, solidify our leadership position, and empower customers to derive unprecedented value from their data assets.”
