Biography

Simon Bernie has spent more than three decades at the intersection of global technology leadership, strategic partnerships, and operational transformation. He does not simply design strategies – he makes them work. Across Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Europe, and North America, Simon has built a reputation for turning ambiguity into clarity, complexity into competitive advantage, and partnerships into predictable revenue. As Founder and Managing Partner of Goh Bernie Advisory, Simon helps technology companies, cybersecurity firms, and enterprises scale globally through alliance strategy, market expansion, and AI-enabled transformation. His leadership journey includes eleven years at Dell Technologies, where he delivered the largest HCI and SDN deployments in APJ. At World Wide Technology, he expanded service delivery into 55 new markets and captured a 41% win rate – radically outperforming industry benchmarks. At Purview Services, he led $2M AI data centre deployments across the UAE, Canada, and the USA, generating a 60x opportunity funnel and tripling revenue. At Teceze, he built a global alliance and procurement ecosystem from scratch, establishing partnerships with Microsoft, Cisco, Ingram Micro, and others. Beyond the boardroom, Simon is a Certified F45 Coach, a Level 6 International Referee for Touch Football, a father of four, and a grandfather. He has collaborated with the U.S. Embassy in Singapore to host career-building workshops for women in technology, believing that true leadership lifts others. His career is defined not by titles, but by impact – measured in markets opened, teams developed, and lives touched. Simon Bernie is not just a strategist. He is an executor. A coach. A mentor. A builder of bridges. His legacy is still being written – one partnership, one transformation, one life at a time. gohbernie.com
