Exclusive Networks appoints Bennett Wong as new APAC Head

Bennett Wong will lead Exclusive Networks’ APAC growth strategy and accelerate partner success across diverse, fast-growing markets.

Exclusive Networks has appointed Bennett Wong as Senior Vice President for the Asia Pacific region. The global cybersecurity go-to-market specialist is hoping Wong’s appointment will enable them to double their revenue, in line with global plans.

In his new role, Wong will lead Exclusive Networks’ APAC growth strategy and accelerate partner success across diverse, fast-growing markets. Given the uniquely complex cybersecurity environment in APAC, Exclusive Networks believes it has the opportunity to grow its presence especially with organizations facing increasingly sophisticated threats against critical infrastructure and vital supply chains.

With businesses in the region also compounded by a fragmented landscape of diverse markets and evolving regulatory mandates, Exclusive Networks leverages deep, localized expertise through its established on-the-ground teams to guide partners and customers in navigating these strategic risks.

Wong, who has over twenty-five years of leadership experience in global technology distribution, has successfully steered multi-country transformations, driven regional integrations, and built high-performing teams to deliver consistent execution across APAC.

Commenting on his appointment, Wong said businesses across Asia Pacific are modernizing existing applications and rolling out new digital services to accelerate digital transformation. As such, he believes organizations will need to ensure cyber resiliency and security in a rapidly evolving landscape, especially with increased AI adoption as well as demand in edge computing, hybrid cloud and modern data centers.

“Our partners and vendors are looking for a distributor that combines strategic vision with hands-on execution,” Wong said.

Building on opportunities in APAC

Wong’s appointment reflects Exclusive Networks’ continued investment in local leadership to scale cybersecurity solutions and services throughout the region. Wong will also focus on growing Exclusive Networks’ services offerings, helping vendors bring new technologies to market faster, and strengthening partner capabilities across key markets.

“Ultimately, we are go-to-market specialists, uniquely positioned to help our brands, some of the biggest security companies in the world, accelerate their products to market faster. My prime focus is to strengthen our vendor and partner ecosystems, scale our services capabilities, and help customers adopt cybersecurity at pace and with confidence,” he added.

His long-term strategy is built on three pillars. This includes driving operational excellence across existing markets, building solution capabilities that differentiate Exclusive Networks, and delivering a consistent Exclusive Networks experience and platform with broad market coverage, support and Go-To-Market execution for vendors and partners.

For Roman Tuma, Chief Revenue Officer of Exclusive Networks , Wong’s experience in scaling regional operations and building partner ecosystems will be key as Exclusive Networks continues to pursue its mission to be the go-to specialist for trusted digital infrastructure.

“I have full confidence in Bennett to build on the strong foundations and further accelerate our growth in APAC’s high-growth markets,” Tuma said.

With offices in over 45 countries and the ability to serve customers in over 170 countries, Exclusive Networks combines a local perspective with the scale and delivery of a single global organization. The cybersecurity go-to-market specialist provides partners and end-customers with a wide range of services and product portfolios via proven routes to market.

In the APAC, Exclusive Networks’ vision is to strengthen its position as a trusted partner, operating in a highly fragmented region with both mature and emerging markets, where rapid digitalization is driving demand for advanced cybersecurity solutions across small, medium and large enterprises.

By combining global vendor relationships with deeper local execution, the organization aims to scale services, build technical expertise, and support partners in capturing growth across these dynamic markets.
