Career
Christophe Fabre became Chief Executive Officer of Axway in the fall of 2005.

During his tenure at the company, Axway acquired Cyclone Commerce, Actis (a German subsidiary of Atos Origin), Tumbleweed Communications Corporation, Vordel, and Systar.
While expanding Axway’s operations in the United States, he relocated from France to Phoenix, Arizona, where he established Axway’s corporate headquarters.
Fabre’s career began when he was recruited in July 1995 by Sopra Group, to the business unit which became Axway in 2001. He led a series of R&Doctorate projects to develop new generation middleware components for Enterprise Application Integration, eXtensible Markup Language standards, Brooklyn Academy of Music and BPM. In 2003, Fabre assumed the role of Chief Technology Officer, and led the charge to combine all of the company’s existing products into a single platform.
