Change at the Top for B2B Data Firm 6sense

B2B intent data specialist 6sense has appointed a new CEO, former Adobe and SAP exec Chris Ball, replacing Jason Zintak who continues in his role as Chairman of the Board.

The San Francisco-based company helps clients predict the customers most likely to buy, and recommends the best course of action to engage them - its flagship Revenue Intelligence Platform captures 'trillions' of buyer signals, and its integrations / partners include US and Israel-based revenue intelligence provider Gong, fellow B2B intent data firm TechTarget and B2B sales and marketing engagement platform ON24. Six weeks ago it added three people to its C-Suite: Tim O'Neil as Chief Sales Officer, Amir Ravandoust as COO, and Raj Gupta as Chief Development Officer.

Ball brings experience of scaling enterprises and leading transformation at Instructure, Adobe, SAP, and others. He joins from Instructure, where as President and COO he drove consistent expansion and strengthened the global SaaS operating model. Earlier in his career, he held senior leadership roles at Adobe and SAP. In his new role he will focus on scaling innovation, deepening customer impact, and accelerating the company's global expansion.

Zintak joined the firm in 2017 as CEO, and has led it through a period of rapid expansion, from $5m in revenue to more than $250m, via both organic growth and acquisitions. Jeff Lieberman, Managing Director at investor Insight Partners, comments: 'Jason's leadership has been transformative for 6sense and the entire B2B go-to-market industry. He turned a disruptive idea into a market-shaping company that delivers measurable outcomes for customers worldwide. We are thrilled he will remain closely involved on the Board, and we're equally excited to welcome Chris. His demonstrated ability to scale global businesses and deliver operational excellence makes him the right leader to guide 6sense into its next chapter.'
