The company continues to expand its presence in
Europe with a team and operations in Paris focused on customer
success, innovation, and growth in France
Cloudflare, Inc. (NYSE: NET), the security, performance, and
reliability company helping to build a better Internet, today
announced that Paris, France, will be the home of its fourth office
in Europe, to further support its growing European operations.
Paris represents a growing Cloudflare team and presence in Europe,
following the company’s European headquarters in London, and
offices in Munich, Germany and Lisbon, Portugal. Cloudflare’s
Paris-based team will help the company grow brand awareness,
support and acquire customers, and recruit new talent. As part of
the announcement Cloudflare is welcoming its first Head of France,
Boris Lecoeur, a seasoned regional leader with more than two
decades of industry experience in software and technology, who will
lead this new office and team.
“France is home to the seventh largest national economy, and
Europe’s greatest concentration of Fortune Global 500 companies.
This has always been an important region for us, and Paris is home
to one of the first European data centers we turned on, nearly a
decade ago,” said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare.
“With a team based in Paris, we're committed to this growing
business landscape, being closer to our customers as well as
expanding our business in the region.”
Today, Cloudflare’s network currently spans 78 cities in the
EMEA region, including three cities in France. Cloudflare first
invested in France when it expanded its network into Paris in 2011
just eight months after launching the company. Now with data
centers spanning more than 200 cities in over 100 countries
worldwide, the company continues to grow its presence to be even
closer to Internet-connected users everywhere.
With more than 3.2 million customers globally, Cloudflare’s
customers in the EMEA region are of various industries and sizes.
French customers include enterprises among the likes of L’Oréal,
Solocal, Criteo, Allianz France, and Webedia, logistics companies
like DPDgroup (Le Groupe La Poste), educational institutions such
as INSEAD, and iconic startups like Back Market, Happn, Wildmoka,
and Sendinblue. Cloudflare also partners with a number of companies
including Alter Way, Hardis Group, Smile, SoftwareONE, and more to
enable joint customers in the country.
"In addition to securing our application with Cloudflare, Happn
uses Cloudflare Workers in order to deliver our content in the
right format depending on the user's device," said Guillaume
Durand, Lead Operations Engineer, Happn. "This has allowed us to
simplify and optimize the costs of our storage."
Cloudflare also protects non-profits like La Chaîne du Droit and
Phaune Radio through its Project Galileo, an initiative that
provides cybersecurity protection free of charge to public interest
groups of cultural, artistic, or humanitarian importance.
"As a non-profit radio station based in Paris, Phaune Radio
needed a way to protect against daily cyberattacks and accommodate
a dramatic increase in listeners looking for a reviving listening
experience during the pandemic," said Stephane Jourdan, co-founder
at Phaune Radio. "Through Cloudflare's Project Galileo, we were
able to scale 10X without worrying about security threats and focus
on what we do best—bringing sound programming and podcasts to
listeners throughout France, and globally."
Cloudflare’s first Head of France, Boris Lecoeur, will oversee
and lead the company’s sales and overall team in the region.
“Organizations are relying on the Internet, more than ever, to
optimally serve and secure their customers, partners, and
employees, and Cloudflare is leading this transition,” said Boris
Lecoeur, Head of France at Cloudflare. “I have been impressed by
what Cloudflare has built in EMEA, and specifically in France. I’m
thrilled to help deliver the security, performance, and reliability
customers depend on to win in the online economy.”
Within the last year, Cloudflare has grown its EMEA team by more
than 55 percent. Today, Cloudflare has approximately 400 employees
in the region. The initial functions prioritized for the Paris
office include Engineering, Sales and Partnerships, Customer
Success, and Marketing. Cloudflare’s Paris location will join its
other global offices in San Francisco, CA, Austin, TX, Champaign,
IL, Seattle, WA, New York, NY, San Jose, CA, Washington, D.C.,
Lisbon, London, Munich, Beijing, Singapore, Sydney, and Tokyo.
