Diego Blanc

I am a global finance executive with over two decades of leadership experience driving strategic, operational, and financial transformation across large multinational technology organizations. I bring a rare combination of deep financial acumen, cross-functional leadership and a proven ability to guide organizations through pivotal transitions—from legacy business models to scalable, subscription-based and SaaS frameworks.

I’ve led finance organizations supporting global operations and strategic road mapping. At Infoblox, I played a key role in the company’s successful evolution from perpetual software to a SaaS model, improving margins, operational efficiency, and enterprise value leading up to its PE exit. My earlier tenure at Cisco honed my expertise in scaling large P&L operations, optimizing margins, and driving disciplined investment strategies aligned to long-term corporate goals.

I thrive at solving complex business problems where financial discipline meets strategic transformation—particularly in scaling go-to-market organization, software transition and finance transformation within the software industry, technology, cybersecurity, SaaS, and enterprise infrastructure sectors. Companies that would benefit most from my insight are those at an inflection point: scaling toward IPO, integrating after acquisition, or pivoting from product-centric to recurring revenue models. My approach emphasizes value creation, governance excellence, and pragmatic, data-driven decision-making.
