Barco has appointed Amit Saxena as Vice President and Global Head of IT, Cybersecurity & AI Platforms, adding an experienced technology leader to its global leadership structure. In his new role, Saxena will oversee key technology functions spanning IT infrastructure, cybersecurity and AI platforms, with a focus on strengthening the company’s digital capabilities and aligning technology priorities with business objectives.
Saxena announced the appointment on LinkedIn, marking a new phase in a career spanning more than 28 years across IT strategy, infrastructure, cloud technologies, artificial intelligence and enterprise-wide digital transformation.
Driving Barco’s Global Technology Strategy
Saxena’s new mandate brings together three closely connected areas of enterprise technology: global IT, cybersecurity and AI platforms. His priorities will include strengthening Barco’s digital foundations, advancing its cybersecurity capabilities and scaling AI platforms across the organisation.
The role also places emphasis on aligning technology capabilities with business requirements. As companies increasingly rely on digital platforms to support operations, customer engagement and innovation, technology leadership is becoming central to improving organisational resilience and enabling long-term business growth.
At Barco, Saxena will focus on developing the technology capabilities needed to support the company’s broader strategic objectives while strengthening its global IT environment.
Brings 28 Years of Technology Leadership Experience
Saxena brings more than 28 years of experience in technology leadership, with expertise spanning IT strategy, cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence, digital transformation and global capability centres (GCCs). His professional background also includes P&L management and global technology operations.
Before joining Barco, he held senior technology leadership positions involving global IT, digital transformation and GCC operations. His experience includes building and scaling technology organisations and driving enterprise-wide transformation programmes.
This background covers several areas that are increasingly interconnected in modern enterprise environments, where organisations must manage infrastructure, cybersecurity and emerging technologies as part of a coordinated technology strategy.
Cybersecurity and AI Take Centre Stage
The combination of cybersecurity and AI platforms within Saxena’s remit reflects the growing importance of integrating security and innovation into enterprise technology planning. As organisations expand their use of AI and cloud-based systems, they must also strengthen the infrastructure, security controls and operational capabilities that support these technologies.
For technology leaders, the challenge extends beyond adopting new platforms. It also involves ensuring that systems remain secure, scalable and aligned with business priorities. Saxena’s responsibilities at Barco will span these interconnected areas, bringing digital infrastructure, cybersecurity and AI capabilities under a unified global leadership mandate.
Strengthening Barco’s Digital Foundations
Headquartered in Belgium, Barco develops visualisation and collaboration solutions for sectors including enterprise, healthcare, entertainment, defence and security. Its portfolio includes display technologies, projection systems, visualisation solutions and collaboration platforms, serving customers across global markets, including India.
Saxena’s appointment comes as enterprises continue to integrate AI, cloud infrastructure and cybersecurity into broader digital transformation programmes. His new role will focus on strengthening Barco’s technology foundations while advancing the platforms and capabilities needed to support its evolving business requirements.
