development, engineering and business leadership experience
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) today announced that
Regina E. Dugan, president and CEO of Wellcome Leap, a U.S.

for the benefit of human health, has been appointed to HPE’s Board
of Directors, effective today. Dugan will also serve as a member of
the Board’s Technology Committee.
Dugan, a former director of the U.S. Defense Advanced Research
Projects Agency (DARPA), brings to the Board extensive experience
in developing innovative technology. She has led efforts to deliver
breakthrough solutions during her career, working in the public and
private sectors, including for technology companies such as
Facebook (now Meta), Google, and Motorola.
“Regina is an impressive technologist who oversaw the innovation
engine for U.S. national security before turning to product
development at leading technology companies,” said Patricia Russo,
chair of the Board of Directors, Hewlett Packard Enterprise. “Our
Board and our company will benefit from her developer mindset and
deep engineering experience in increasingly important technology
disciplines such as cybersecurity, cloud, and artificial
intelligence.”
Dugan is a globally recognized executive and technology
developer with nearly 30 years of experience. She became CEO of
Wellcome Leap in 2020 to build the first-ever global version of
DARPA to address the global challenges we face, starting with human
health. Wellcome Leap builds and funds bold, unconventional
programs that aim to increase the number and speed of breakthroughs
in human health.
Dugan was previously Vice President of Engineering at Facebook
(prior to it becoming Meta), a Vice President of Engineering,
Advanced Technology and Products at Google, as well as a Senior
Vice President of Advanced Technology and Projects for Motorola.
She was the director of DARPA from 2009 to 2012, and was the first
woman to lead the agency.
“Regina will be an asset to HPE as we accelerate the
next-generation innovations that position our customers for the
future and help us transform to be the edge-to-cloud company,” said
Antonio Neri, president and CEO of Hewlett Packard Enterprise.
“Regina’s emerging technologies experience will enhance our ability
to deliver relevant solutions to our customers, allowing us to
innovate even more advanced ways to unlock the value in their
data.”
“Edge-to-cloud architectures are essential to competitiveness
for so many companies, and HPE’s products and services are

to join the Board.”
