AMS-IX appoints Jerry Grondel as Head of Products

AMS-IX, one of the largest internet exchanges worldwide, appoints Jerry Grondel (52) as Head of Products. In this role, Grondel will work closely with AMS-IX’s Sales & Marketing and Innovation & Technology teams. With Grondel’s appointment, AMS-IX takes the next step in expanding its strategic Product Development.

Grondel comes with a wealth of experience in product management. For instance, before joining AMS-IX, he was Senior Product Manager at Worldstream. Previously, Grondel held Product Management roles at NL-IX and XS4All. At AMS-IX, Grondel focuses on further expanding the product portfolio, aimed at further supporting members and customers and driving forward innovations in the community.
‘As one of the first Internet Exchanges worldwide, AMS-IX has always played a unique role in the Internet community,’ Grondel said. ‘Besides its technological lead, AMS-IX is the embodiment of the internet on several fronts: independent and non-commercial. An organisation for its customers and members, passionately committed to a better society through a better internet. AMS-IX does this by actively working on technological innovations, but also by helping policymakers with independent insight into important discussions about our digital society and digital, economic future. This pioneering role in the market also brings many benefits to its members and customers, and thus to the end-user who can benefit from a stable, fast, independent and secure internet. I look forward to working from my role as Head of Products together with other colleagues at AMS-IX to bring even more value to our customers and members and thus to the entire internet community.’
