John Rechsteiner has joined Audinate as VP of Global Sales & Support, to lead the worldwide sales and customer support teams.
Rechsteiner brings more than two decades of sales, marketing and customer support experience in the pro audio, broadcast and postproduction industries. John most recently served as VP of Sales, Asia Pacific for Avid based in Tokyo. Earlier in his career, Rechsteiner led the expansion of DigiDesign (now Avid) in the Asia-Pacific region.
‘John is the right person to further build, develop and inspire our talented sales and support team,” says Audinate CEO, Lee Ellison. ‘John brings a wealth of experience and we look forward to adding such a high-calibre sales leader to manage this period of rapid growth.”
‘Audinate’s growing list of OEM partners signals the broad acceptance of Dante in the marketplace and customers’ desire for networked audio in commercial, live and broadcast applications,’ say Rechsteiner. ‘I am excited to play a role in the transition of the A/V industry to a networked world.’
Audinate also announced the expansion of its technical solutions team to expand its educational and awareness programmes. Bernie Farkus has joined Audinate as Senior Technical Sales Engineer for North America, and Kieran Walsh has moved into a new role as Regional Manager of Global Support Services for EMEA. These positions will help facilitate the wide adoption of Dante by developing education and training programmes to support Audinate’s OEM distribution channels, A/V design consultants and systems integrators.
