Teradata Names Oliver Ratzesberger as New CEO
Summary
Teradata on Monday announced that Oliver Ratzesberger, its chief operating officer, has been tapped as president and CEO Victor Lund’s successor. Teradata had a research and development lab there for years, and since its selection as the company’s new headquarters has expanded its physical footprint. The company also showed off the Silicon Valley-style set-up and amenities it had added to renovated office space recently incorporated into the campus to accommodate its growing headcount. As part of the leadership transition, which took place the day of the announcement, Lund becomes executive chairman of the Teradata board of directors. From 2016 to his appointment as COO in February of 2018, he was Teradata’s chief product officer and an executive vice president.
