Fagan joins Exa from Aqua Comms, where has held the role of CEO since May 2023.

Before Aqua Comms, Fagan worked at Global Cloud Exchange where he was chief revenue and strategy officer as part of a small team which lifted the business out of bankruptcy and sold it to UK-based private equity and venture capital company 3i.

Fagan has worked within the US and internationally with companies including Telstra, Pacnet and Rackspace.

Since November 2023, Nick Read, former Vodafone CEO and current executive Chair of the Exa Board of Directors has been providing CEO oversight to the company, while leading the search for a new CEO.
