“Over the past few years, DocuSign has grown from a popular app to an essential platform for how the world creates, signs and manages agreements–from anywhere, with anyone, and at any time. As we enter our next phase of growth, it’s critical that we build a leadership bench ready to scale with our ambitions,” said Dan Springer, CEO, DocuSign. “Inhi, Jennifer, Jim and Jerome bring world-class leadership experience from companies at scale like IBM, Twitter, Workday and HP, which we’re excited to leverage as we move to enable a truly anywhere economy.”
Inhi Cho Suh will transition from her role on DocuSign’s board of directors to lead the company’s newly created Product and Technology group in July. As President of Product and Technology, she will be responsible for driving innovation across the DocuSign Agreement Cloud including eSignature, expanding our partner ecosystem, and delivering transformative experiences for DocuSign’s more than one million customers.

She brings tremendous experience in leading large teams and developing broad partner ecosystems at scale. Inhi will be stepping down from her DocuSign board seat and will remain on the board of AnitaB.org and Grace Hopper Conference, the largest non-profit for the advancement of women in technology.
