Zurich-headquartered IT security firm AdNovum announced on January 26 that it has appointed David Chan as Managing Director of AdNovum Singapore, effective February 1. He will take over from interim leader Dejan Dukaric, Executive Director of Engineering, who has been temporarily holding the role following the departure of former MD Leonard Cheong in December 2020.

Chan is currently Director, Government & Public Services, at PricewaterhouseCoopers Singapore. He has also spent a significant part of his career in technology companies, having previously held positions at Hitachi Consulting, Stone Apple Solutions, and Oracle among others, and has experience partnering with organizations in the public and non-public sectors in Singapore and South East Asia.

Chan said of his new appointment: “I am looking forward to leading the Singapore branch of AdNovum. What appealed to me to join AdNovum was the team. Employees are the asset of an organization and I can see the passion of the AdNovum employees that I have interacted with.”
