Anton/Bauer, a brand of The Vitec Group,
and the world’s premier provider of professional video
camera batteries, chargers, lighting and other mobile power
systems, is announcing the appointment of Graham Ramsey as
Vice President of Sales.
Ramsey, an industry veteran with a proven sales track record
spanning more than two decades, moves to Anton/Bauer from
Clear-Com, another Vitec Group brand. In his new capacity
as Vice President of Sales, Ramsey will oversee all sales
for Anton/Bauer worldwide and will work closely with Shin
Minowa, recently promoted to Vice President, Marketing and
Business Development.
“I’m very excited about the opportunities I see
ahead as the broadcast and video industries continue to transition
in the face of changing technology and market forces,”
says Ramsey. “The modern business paradigms that are
developing will open up whole new avenues for expansion. I
believe that Anton/Bauer is uniquely positioned with its state-of-the-art
technology solutions to take full advantage of these opportunities.”
“Leveraging our technology to meet specific customer
applications is critical to successfully compete in today's
challenging environment,” says Michael Accardi, President
of Anton/Bauer. “With his many years of solid experience
in sales and support program development, as well as his broad
knowledge of existing and emerging markets, Ramsey is the
ideal candidate to continue development of our sales efforts
and help us achieve established goals.”
Before joining Anton/Bauer, Ramsey was Vice President of Worldwide
Sales and Support for Clear-Com, where he established and
directed the sales and support efforts in Cambridge, UK, and
in Alameda, California. Prior to that, he spent 18 years at
Vinten Broadcast, Inc., as General Manager responsible for
the commercial operation of Vinten in its global markets.
During his career, Ramsey has logged significant successes
in each position he has held. At Clear-Com, his sales and
support achievements helped establish the company’s place
as a global market leader in professional communication systems
for production teams. While at Vinten, Ramsey set up a fully
operational marketing office in Singapore in less than two
months and generated a six-fold increase in sales in China
over a four-year period. The result of his professional efforts
on behalf of each company has been increased market opportunities
and brand strength.
“We fully expect that Ramsey’s impressive ability
to drive sales and manage customer support programs will add
a powerful dynamic to the sales and marketing efforts of Anton/Bauer,”
says Joop Janssen, Chief Executive, Broadcast Systems division
for Vitec Group. “We believe he will have an impressive
impact on the company’s success.”
