Larry Jacobson joins QuVIS as President of newly formed Entertainment Division

QuVIS has announced that Larry Jacobson has joined the company as President of its newly formed Entertainment Division.
The new division will provide QuVIS’ advanced digital imaging technologies to those entertainment markets seeking solutions to the increasing demand for high resolution, high fidelity imaging - including d-cinema exhibition, gaming, large venues, production, postproduction, and alternative programming.
"The formation of a separate Entertainment Division is necessary to continue our expansion of efforts in this industry," said Kenbe Goertzen, QuVIS President and CEO. "This move will ensure that QuVIS remains focused on our entertainment customers. We are proud to have a respected industry veteran like Larry Jacobson to lead it.”
Jacobson most recently was Vice President of Strong Digital, a division of Ballantyne of Omaha Inc. He has approximately 30 years tenure as a theatre consultant and exhibitor. During his career, Jacobson has been responsible for the design and construction of theatres, the purchasing and installation of fixtures, and the oversight of existing theatre rehabilitation. As a result of his involvement, he has personally been responsible for and holds patents on several industry innovations in audio and theatre facility design.
In 1998, Jacobson received an Academy Award for Technical Achievement.
“I’m excited about the possibilities provided by the technological superiority of the QuVIS product line. QuVIS provides a true end-to-end digital imaging solution, a solution that is especially well suited for the emerging digital cinema market,” Jacobson said. “It was obvious to me that QuVIS' business philosophy of merging the most advanced technology with the needs of its customers will be a catalyst for success.”
