Ianni said: “I’m joining Knowde at a time when the digital channel is more critical than ever for our industry.

“Ali and the leadership team have an ambitious vision to bring suppliers, distributors, and their customers into the digital world, and I am excited to continue what I started at UL Prospector with Knowde — the new industry leader.”
