Clearfield Appoints New CMO

Clearfield, Inc. appointed Anis Khemakhem as Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), while Kevin Morgan has transitioned to the role of Executive Advisor to the CEO. Khemakhem's transition to CMO is effective January 1, 2025. 

Khemakhem, who joined Clearfield earlier this year as Vice President of Global Technology Platforms, has 25 years of experience in the industry experience, with diverse leadership skills.

Clearfield says Khemakhem "will drive the company’s marketing strategy, spearhead efforts to expand into new markets, and identify new product opportunities to support business growth initiatives both within and beyond the Company’s community broadband marketplace, and global adoption of its technology footprint."

The company says Khemakhem will take on the responsibilities of "enhancing customer engagement and accelerating the development and rollout of innovative fiber solutions," particularly with the BEAD era entering a new phase.

“Anis brings a wealth of new market development and marketing experience to Clearfield, and we’re excited to see how his vision will continue to elevate our presence in the market,” said Cheri Beranek, President and CEO of Clearfield. “We are deeply grateful for Kevin’s invaluable contributions as CMO, and we look forward to benefiting from his expertise in his new advisory role.”

Kevin Morgan becomes Executive Advisor

Kevin Morgan, who has served as Clearfield’s CMO since 2016, will transition into the newly created role of Executive Advisor to the CEO.

Clearfield says Morgan will maintain the company's connection with the Fiber Broadband Association (FBA), supporting public policy efforts while also representing Clearfield at industry conferences and authoring articles for industry-leading publications.

“It’s been an incredible journey serving as Clearfield’s CMO, and I look forward to continuing my work with the company in this new capacity,” said Morgan. “I’m eager to see Anis step into this new role and bring fresh energy and ideas to our marketing efforts.”
