Bruce Duncan Tapped for Top Spot at CyrusOne

CyrusOne’s board of directors has elected Bruce W. Duncan as president and CEO, effective July 6. Duncan succeeds Tesh Durvasula, who has served as CyrusOne’s interim president and CEO since Gary Wojtaszek left the company in February.

Duncan has more than 40 years’ diverse real estate management, development, and global investment experience across numerous property types. He has had a remarkable track record as CEO and director of multiple public companies: Cadillac Fairview Corporation, Equity Residential, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, and First Industrial Realty Trust, the latter of which he led for seven years beginning in 2009.

Alex Shumate, chairman of Dallas-based CyrusOne’s board, said, “Bruce is a proven real estate executive with decades of experience as a REIT CEO and public company director. We are confident that Bruce is the right person to lead the company in our strategic execution, continued growth, and international expansion.”
