Blocks & Files is reporting that Henrik Hansen is leaving his role as Director of Marketing, EMEA, at iSCSI SAN software vendor LeftHand Networks and is going to QLogic to serve in a similar role.

He said that things were going very well indeed at LeftHand Networks with four straight quarters of growth in Europe. Back in 2004 LeftHand said it was pursuing an IPO in the 2 to 4-year timeframe. Allowing for market conditions slippage the possibility is that this is now a firm course and the company is focussing on building up good results for that.

Hansen will cease working for LeftHand Networks at the end of this month and join QLogic as its head of EMEA marketing on August 18th.

Thanks to Blocks & Files for the news.
