What defines your business? At Digital Realty, it’s all about our customers. Customers are the driving inspiration to continuously transform how we work, and our primary motivation to innovate beyond what’s expected. This focus enables us to power our customers’ infrastructure, to provide the strategic footing and technology for success today and to help them scale in the future.

Beyond technical IT infrastructure, our team is the engine that drives everything forward. Corey Dyer, EVP of Global Sales & Marketing, is the newest member of the Digital Reality leadership team—and the perfect fuel for that engine. His full-spectrum view of technology implementation gives him a unique perspective that promises to help broaden our offerings through partner and channel relationships and drive our customer-centric solutions to the next level. Let’s get to know Corey a little better.

As a child, Corey was already motivated by a deep desire to know how technology works. He got his hands on an Apple Lisa in the early 1980s and recalls, “I remember dabbling in programming in BASIC. That was my first memory of being excited and intrigued by technology and the powers it held.” Decades later, his fascination continues to manifest as intense curiosity about evolving tech and how it can be harnessed: How does it work? How can it help people? How can it empower businesses?

Since the days of CGA monitors, Dyer started selling servers and storage at Dell. This humble beginning was a secret weapon in disguise: it gave him a glimpse into where data centers were headed and how they figured into end-to-end technology strategies that were starting to emerge.
