Imagine Communications Appoints Regional Sales Manager

Imagine Communications has appointed Fabrizio Mariani as a regional sales manager.

Based in Milan, Italy, he will cover Greece and Malta, as well as his native Italy.

Even while studying computer science at university in Milan, Mariani was working as a freelance graphics operator and designer in a television station. He has never left the industry, working with leading vendors on cutting-edge systems in video storage, networking and data management. This experience ideally suits him for his new role at Imagine Communications, where he will help deliver innovative solutions to contemporary challenges.

"In my 17-year career, I have worked with a number of large broadcast vendors, managing projects for some of the leading media companies in Europe, and helping them to solve the most complex technological challenges," Mariani said. "A company like Imagine brings a broad range of pioneering technologies to the market, but above all, it has a philosophy of working with its customers to help them transition to IP and software-defined workflows and operations, at their own pace. I am delighted to join Imagine and to be part of the team that helps support our customers from across the region with this transition."

Mathias Eckert, SVP APAC and EMEA for Imagine Communications, added: "The market in Italy has been buoyant, and we have delivered systems for broadcasters and outside broadcast companies which have attracted the admiration of the world. In Greece and Malta, many customers are looking to seize the advantages of software-defined architectures and IP connectivity to boost flexibility and efficiency in their operations.

"Fabrizio's background is in the application of these very technologies to the media world," Eckert added. "He is well-known and well-respected in the market, and he will cement Imagine's reputation for commitment to the industry through active, continuing contact and support. I am delighted to welcome him on board."
