SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Sep 30, 2008 -- ON24, Inc. (http://www.ON24.com), the global leader in Webcasting and Virtual Events solutions, today announced that Denise Persson has joined the company as Chief Marketing Officer. With over 15 years of sales, marketing and product management experience, Persson will drive the company's global marketing efforts for its integrated family of Webcasting and Virtual Events solutions across the United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific Regions.

Persson was formerly Executive Vice President of Global Marketing for Genesys where her marketing strategies and programs helped the company build a customer base of more than 200 of the Global Fortune 500. During her tenure, she was an integral member of the executive team that grew the company tenfold -- from $20 million to more than $200 million. She also helped earn the company a number of prestigious industry and product awards as well as spearheading a variety of innovative green initiatives.

"Virtual events and webcasts were an integral component of the marketing programs I used for Genesys, so I've been an ON24 customer for years. I've walked in our customers' shoes and look forward to using my experience to help them drive their own business success by using ON24's demand generation solutions," stated Persson.
