His primary focus will be to support implementation of workflows and file-based solutions for Los Angeles-based content creators, studios, broadcast networks and postproduction facilities.
‘Robin has more than 20 years of management experience in the media sector, working in both production and postproduction, so he is an ideal fit for our Western US RadiantGrid sales operations,’ says Wohler Chief Marketing Officer, Don Bird. ‘His proven ability to motivate teams and capture market share and his understanding of RadiantGrid technology’s power to transform operations and business models for the better will be of tremendous value as he works with key customers and strategic partners to extend the footprint of our RadiantGrid solutions.’
