In her new role, Maher is expected to drive organic revenue growth and product innovation at AUCloud in Australia. Peter Maloney, MD and CEO of AUCloud, believes her contribution will be crucial for continued collaboration with the Australian government.

He states that her role will be instrumental in helping AUCloud's customers navigate governance, risk, and compliance related to sovereign cloud capabilities, data protection, and cybersecurity in Australia.

Maher has also taken part in procurement roundtables with Senator David Pocock and Minister Katy Gallagher in Australia in 2023 and 2024. However, the name of the person who participated in these rounds with Senator David Pocock and Minister Katy Gallagher in Australia in 2023 and 2024 is not publicly available.

The appointment of Samantha Maher is expected to strengthen AUCloud's engagement with the Australian federal government. Her ongoing contribution highlights her expertise and active involvement in shaping key industry and policy discussions in Australia.

Peter Maloney's confidence in Maher's abilities is well-placed. With her extensive experience and commitment to the tech sector in Australia, Maher is poised to make a significant impact at AUCloud and in the broader Australian tech industry.

In a separate development, AUCloud reiterates its commitment to data sovereignty and security in Australia. The company believes that Maher's involvement will further reinforce this commitment and ensure that AUCloud continues to provide top-tier services to its customers in Australia.
