DPA Microphones has appointed Nikolaj Forsberg as EVP of Sales.
Working from DPA’s headquarters in Denmark, Forsberg will be responsible for overseeing global sales activity and helping to develop new prospects for DPA’s extensive product portfolio, which covers pro audio, live sound, theatre, broadcast, and the house of worship and installation markets.
Bringing international sales and management experience and a track record of sustainable results in multiple organisations to his new position, Forsberg is familiar with DPA’s structure and philosophy as he has been working for the company as a consultant since April 2017, helping to develop sales and marketing systems. His skill set, which includes a scientific education (Bachelor in Computer Science, Physics and Mathematics, University of Copenhagen) and a commercial education (Executive MBA from Copenhagen Business School), ensures that he understands both the technical and commercial aspects of the DPA business.
Prior to joining DPA, Forsberg was Global Head of Sales (Special Cargo) for the Maersk Line where he was responsible for sales revenue of more than US$500. He also has extensive experience of marketing, WEB sales and tech businesses and is adept at dealing with companies that, like DPA, sell through complex dealer networks.
‘Nikolaj already has a good knowledge of DPA’s core business and we believe he has the right leadership skills to develop and motivate our fantastic sales team,’ says DPA Microphones CEO, Kalle Hvidt Nielsen. ‘We are sure that Nikolaj will be an asset to DPA as we continue to grow our business around the world.’
‘I find it exciting to join a global company with long history of success and take it to the next level,’ Forsberg says. ‘There is such passion and pride in the company – and so many committed and enthusiastic colleagues – that I am sure we already have a great basis for ongoing success. I look forward to engaging with our customers and partners, so that we can take DPA confidently into the future.’
