Gabe Marzano leaves Palo Alto Networks

Gabe Marzano, who heads up sales and GTM for Asia Pacific & Japan at Palo Alto Networks, has departed the company.

She joined in 2022 after serving as head of cyber security at NEXTGEN.

Prior to this, she served as digital transformation leader at SAP.

In a LinkedIn post, Marzano said she leaves with "immense gratitude" for the experiences the company, role and opportunity afforded her over the past four years.

"From listening to a fireside chat between Eric Schmidt and Nikesh Arora during my very first SKO, hosting 25+ of our most valuable partners in Queenstown NZ with Janet Docherty, travelling all over the Japan & Asia Pacific region to meet with CxOs of G2K organisations under the stewardship of Philippa Cogswell, and collaborating with the Top 1% of business professionals within every team at Palo Alto Networks; this experience has truly been a highlight of my professional journey!" she said.

"For now, I’m taking a short break to spend time with family. I don’t intend on joining another technology company, but rather, I plan to move closer to the innovation and venture capital ecosystems to help shape the future."
