D’Amelio’s expertise and proven leadership in finance, corporate development, and operations across multiple industries will bring additional valuable perspective to the Board, and his experience managing IT will lend a relevant customer lens to his insights.

In addition to his role as CFO at Pfizer, D’Amelio was also responsible for Global Supply from 2018 to 2021, which included the manufacturing and distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine.

“HPE’s differentiated edge-to-cloud strategy and portfolio are well-positioned to meet the needs of customers and continue to propel the company’s transformation and success,” D’Amelio said. “I am delighted to join the Board during this exciting period as HPE accelerates its leadership.”
