Nguyen brings more than 15 years of technology experience, pioneering large-scale technology and security transformation programs across financial services, energy and utilities, as well as state and federal government.
Based in Sydney, Nguyen is known for his strong stakeholder leadership, cross-sector experience, and ability to establish governance, delivery frameworks and high-performing teams that drive measurable enterprise outcomes.
Throughout his career, Nguyen has built a reputation for helping large organisations uplift security maturity, reduce enterprise risk, and modernise complex environments to support business growth.
His expertise spans cyber strategy, critical infrastructure uplift, enterprise risk reduction, and delivery of multi-million-dollar modernisation programs aligned to regulatory, board and customer expectations.
Nguyen told CRN Australia that he is passionate about driving tech transformations underpinned by AI that support enterprises to achieve more responsibly, better service their clients and the community and enable and empower their teams.
“V2 is working on some really exciting projects with some of the world’s biggest brands,” he said.
“It has built tried-and-tested AI frameworks, secure capabilities, established partnerships with a range of leading tech vendors, and has a proven expertise in AI strategy, governance, enablement, production and security.
“I’m both excited to learn from some of the exceptional talent in V2’s ranks as well as share my knowledge with the team and customers to further drive innovation and deliver meaningful outcomes that bridge technology and human potential.”
Craig Howe, CEO at V2 AI told CRN Australia, “The importance of ensuring compliance and risk prevention in enterprise transformation is clear.
“With the introduction of AI and agentic platforms that add massive value to organisations, the need intensifies for proven leaders like Nguyen across governance, risk and compliance.”
Throughout his career, Nguyen has built a reputation for helping large organisations uplift security maturity, reduce enterprise risk, and modernise complex environments to support business growth, Howe added.
“We strive to build a business delivering utmost quality to clients, made up of the brightest minds and foster a culture that attracts and retains premium talent,” he said.
“His exceptional capabilities speak for themselves and his expertise will help make a meaningful impact towards our next stage of growth.”
Through this appointment, Howe said to sustain this growth trajectory and keep pace with the demand for AI, they needed to expand the number of partners at V2, whilst continuing to meet customer demand for secure AI and modern systems.
“His proven experience in secure, large-scale AI implementation and technology transformation will be a major asset to clients, helping them achieve measurable results through rapid AI-driven change,” he ended.
