Johnson is a highly-experienced CRO and Board member with over two decades of experience leading high-growth, enterprise-level companies to meet and exceed their revenue goals. He recently served as CRO at Interos Inc.; Chief Sales Officer (CSO) at Marketo; President of Americas at Qlik; and President of Global Sales at Blackberry. Previously, Johnson spent a decade with Sybase (acquired by SAP in 2010) in multiple leadership roles culminating in his running the global database and technology business. He also serves as a Board member for Televerde and The New ork Pops.



Chapman is a seasoned customer experience executive leading high-performing teams in the technology industry for more than 20 years, from scaling up start-ups to managing expansion for large global brands. She has held leadership roles at IBM, Adobe, Marketo, and Interos.

"Eric and Julie join Immersive Labs at a pivotal time when organizations are increasingly focused on building cyber resilience across their teams and having the metrics to prove it," said James Hadley, Chief Executive Officer, Immersive Labs. "Their extensive experience make them a perfect match for our go-to-market strategy, and they will serve as champions for our customers, helping them achieve their key business outcomes."


"I am drawn to Immersive Labs' unique approach to cybersecurity - one that puts people, rather than tech stacks, at the heart of everything," said Johnson. "I am excited to bring the value of Immersive Labs to more customers around the world, and help them safeguard their people, revenues, and brand reputations."

"Cyber leaders face increased pressures to build and prove cyber preparedness across the workforce, and they need more support," said Chapman. "I am looking forward to meeting with current and prospective Immersive Labs customers to learn more about their needs and how we can best address them."

The company's latest hires add valuable expertise, insights, and experience to the company's leadership team. In October 2022, Immersive Labs announced $66M in new capital and the appointments of Sandra McDevitt as Chief Human Resources Officer, and Lucian Lui as Chief Marketing Officer. Immersive Labs was also recently named Gold Winner for "Best Cybersecurity Company - North America" and "Cyber Skilling Product - North America" by the Cyber Excellence Awards.
