Stratasys Ltd., the 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions company, announced it has tapped Dell, Inc. veteran John Gould as the newest member of the company’s leadership team. With more than 20 years of global management and technology experience, Gould will serve as president of North American operations.

With experience as an executive leader at computing giant Dell, Gould has deep operational expertise and a strong track record of success with go-to-market strategy and global sales leadership.

“Stratasys has helped define the market for 3D printing and next-generation manufacturing,” said Stratasys Chief Business Officer Josh Claman. “With a strong market position across North America and worldwide, Stratasys is committed to investing in key people to continue its growth and leadership position. I’m excited to bring John Gould on board, and I’m confident he will lead our North American team to the next level of growth.”

As president of North American operations and a crucial member of the executive leadership team, he is charged with defining the company’s North American strategy to expand the business, maintain Stratasys’ thought leadership position, and continue to improve both the customer and channel partner experience.

“As a defining force in 3D printing solutions, Stratasys is in the unique position to capture additional market opportunities throughout North America,” Gould said. "I’m very excited about the opportunity that lies ahead for our customers, resellers, and Stratasys, and I am confident Stratasys can continue to build significant momentum across the region.”
