NVISION NAMES TWO NEW SUPPORT STAFF FOR EMEA

Program Manager and Customer Support Engineer
committed to router & master control products.

Grass Valley, CA - NVISION, a leading supplier of high performance routing switchers, master control switchers and signal distribution equipment, has appointed two new employees to provide enhanced service and sales support throughout the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region. The new staff members will be based in The Netherlands at NVISION's Master EMEA Distributor, Axon Digital Design.
   Arjen Hofland has been hired as Program Manager, and Rob Fransen as Customer Support Engineer. "Both Arjen and Rob are dedicated solely to our router and master control products," affirms Jay Kuca, NVISION's Director of Marketing. "The new NVISION staff will be based at the Axon Digital Design HQ in Udenhout, The Netherlands.
   Arjen Hofland is a broadcast expert, and Rob Fransen is an experienced customer service engineer. "As NVISION Program Manager, Arjen Hofland takes on the commercial and technological responsibility of this router/master control range in the EMEA countries," Kuca confides. "As NVISION Customer Support Engineer, Rob Fransen heads our technical after-sales support in the same region, thereby providing customers with a guaranteed high level of product-related service."
   Hofland worked previously for Axon Digital Design as Area Sales Manager of the Synapse modular signal-processing range. He joins NVISION from Thomson Grass Valley, where he served a number of years as technical Sales Manager. "As a result of his working experience," says Kuca, "Arjen knows the broadcast industry very well and has managed to build an impressive network of established broadcast relations."
   Fransen also is no stranger to the broadcast community. "Rob worked for Sony Broadcast as Supervisor of Technical Operations," Kuca continues, "where he developed an in-depth knowledge of broadcast technology. Fransen joins NVISION from Imtech, a company specializing in service solutions, where he served as a Service Engineer and mastered the art of technical support.
   All NVISION products destined for sale to EMEA customers will now carry the Axon brand. "The decision to use the Axon brand for our products in this vital region was a natural one," Kuca comments. "Already we have secured major orders from such broadcasters as British Sky Broadcasting/BSkyB. To further underscore our commitment to Axon, all of our router and master control products will carry the Axon color scheme, styling and logos."
   From January 1, 2005, Axon's Synapse series of terminal equipment will be sold throughout North America via NVISION's domestic sales channel; the innovative product line will also be rebranded with the NVISION logo.
   Our new alliance with Axon comprises three complementary elements," Kuca explains. "First, Axon will represent NVISION in this vitally important territory. Second, the company offers a range of terminal equipment that is fully complementary to NVISION's range of routers and master control systems. And finally, we are looking to collaborate with Axon on future product designs."
   "We see our close working relationship with Axon as an opportunity to reach a growing number of broadcast stations and post production facilities that are looking for high-technology master control and routing solutions," emphasizes Charles "Chuck" Meyer, President of NVISION. "Axon's operational philosophy is complementary to ours - we foresee major benefits resulting from this unique strategic alliance."
