Thierry Destombes Joins as French Business Development ManagerNovember 28, 2011, New Milford, CT, USA – Magenta Research, the recognised leader in signal extension, distribution and switching, has appointed Thierry Destombes to the position of Business Development Manager for France. Destombes will play a key role in implementing Magenta’s growth strategy in this important European market, focusing on building relationships with new and existing customers and channel partners.
Destombes has a strong sales background in the IT and digital signage sectors, most recently serving as the France/Belgium Country Manager for Minicom Advanced Systems. Prior to that, Destombes was a Sales Manager for Avocent.
Based in Vincennes, Paris, Destombes will help drive visibility of Magenta’s product portfolio via regular demonstration to end users and channel partners.
