Mobile session and data management company Tekelec has appointed Susie Kim Riley as chief marketing officer. Riley comes to Tekelec following the company’s acquisition of policy control firm Camiant, where she was founder and chief technology officer.
Tekelec closed the Camiant acquisition on Friday, 7 May. The deal brings 30 fixed and mobile broadband policy control customers to Tekelec, including Verizon, Verizon Wireless, Vodafone, Sprint and Comcast.
In her new role, Riley will continue to drive policy innovation and product synergies across mobile and fixed networks. Tekelec says it is the only player in the industry to blend and capture the synergies among session, policy, subscriber data management, network and business intelligence, and mobile messaging.
“Susie and the Camiant team introduced a new generation of solutions for service providers to manage advanced internet-based services over broadband networks,” says Tekelec CEO, Frank Plastina. “She is the strongest voice for policy control in the industry and will be an asset to customers’ efforts to truly capture the value of their network assets and offer compelling new services.”
