David I Goulden

David Goulden is Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at EMC Corporation. With 2007 revenues of $13.2 billion and more than 37,000 employees, EMC is the world's leading developer and provider of information infrastructure technology and solutions that enable organizations of all sizes to transform the way they compete and create value from their information. Goulden oversees the company's worldwide finance operation with responsibility for all of the company's financial reporting, balance sheet management, foreign exchange, audit, tax, and investment banking programs. He is also responsible for EMC's Information Technology and Investor Relations functions and for the Emerging Markets and International Development (EMID) team. In addition, he assists EMC Chairman, President and CEO Joe Tucci in driving and coordinating EMC's internal processes. Goulden is based at EMC's corporate headquarters in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, and reports to Joe Tucci. Previously, Goulden led EMC's customer operations worldwide, including Global Sales in the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific theaters, Global Channels, and Alliances and Partners. Under Goulden's direction, EMC has rapidly transformed into a solutions-oriented technology company with a segmented go-to-market strategy and a partner-friendly selling model. Prior to this role, Goulden oversaw Marketing and New Business Development, where he led EMC's acquisition and integration of independent software providers Legato Systems, Documentum and VMware. Goulden joined EMC in July 2002 from Getronics, a global IT services provider. There, he was a member of the Board of Management, President and Chief Operating Officer, responsible for operations in the Americas and Asia Pacific, a role he assumed after Getronics acquired Wang Global in June 1999. Prior to the acquisition, he served in numerous executive, strategy and marketing roles during a decade with Wang, as president of Wang Global's U.S. Operations in 1999, as senior vice president for Marketing and Corporate Development directing the company's worldwide go-to-market strategy since 1997, and as the leader of the acquisition team for the 1998 purchase of Olsy, the former worldwide services and solutions subsidiary of Olivetti, which more than doubled Wang's size, when the company became known as Wang Global. Prior to joining Wang in 1990, Goulden spent ten years at Unisys in a series of international sales and marketing positions. He holds a B.S. degree in Physics from Durham University (England) and an Executive MBA from Cranfield School of Management (England).
