The chief executive officer and co-founder of Pexip, Simen Teigre, made this disclosure Thursday, saying the company added some staff in these markets.
Expansions, he said, include the addition of John Harald Grønningen in Barcelona, Spain and the hiring of industry veterans Eddie Clifton for the UK & Ireland and Paulo Cardoso in Brazil.
Also, he said, Pexip strengthened its presence in Australia through the addition of Mark Bedwani as senior sales engineer.
"Increasing our team and expanding our capabilities are fundamental for supporting our growing customer base and partnerships across all regions. As organizations execute on strategies for improving their competitive advantage, our Infinity platform continues to grow in popularity as an enabler for efficient collaboration. It's fantastic to see such strong pick up of our platform, continuing to fuel the need for more resources to support our customers, partners and exponential growth,” Teigre said.
For the cofounder, Pexip's presence in Barcelona ensures local support for Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, and Greece is strengthening the company's support for customers and new and existing partners.
This includes local companies such as Techno Trends — a leading visual collaboration company with offices in Barcelona and Madrid. Together, Pexip and Techno Trends have already led initiatives such as cosponsoring IDC's UC & Mobility conference held in Madrid. Pexip Southern Europe is headed by John Harald Grønningen who comes from NetCom, REC Solar, and Tandberg.
Equally speaking, the CEO of Techno Trends, Ernest Companys, said the partnership with Pexip has rapidly grown into a major player within the unified communications marketplace. "Their Infinity solution lets workers collaborate face-to-face without leaving the familiarity of their current environment. This is important for users, enabling easy collaboration from virtually any device and client, and giving companies that competitive edge," he said.
In the UK & Ireland, Pexip welcomes industry veteran Eddie Clifton, who joins the company from strategic partner Viju Group. Based in Hurst, near London, Clifton's vast experience in the videoconferencing and collaboration industries includes strategic director positions for Cisco and Tandberg, and several years' experience in managing strategic accounts on a global level, among others.
