Las Vegas, NV (April 6, 2011) - Arecont Vision, the industry leader in IP-based megapixel
camera technology, has appointed four new sales representatives in Europe. The
appointments include Waldemar Gollan as the new Regional Sales Manager covering
Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and Bo Oerbjerg to handle the Nordic region; Marc
Wesley will be covering the U.K. and Ireland; and Aleksey Berezin will be the new Regional
Sales Manager for Russia and other Commonwealth Independent States, as well as the
Republic of Georgia.
Waldemar Gollan has represented global manufacturers offering advanced technology
including NVRs, encoders, video analytics, video management solutions and unified video
platforms for more than eight years. Mr. Gollan previously worked in sales, product
management and technical support in the IT networking market. “Megapixel cameras are a
great opportunity to increase the efficiency of IP-based video surveillance systems as they
elevate image quality to a much higher level,” said Mr. Gollan.
Bo Oerbjerg was previously a business development manager for the German security
manufacturer Mobotix. He has a background in IT technologies and experience developing
business relationships in the Scandinavian countries of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway
and Sweden. “I enjoy the challenges of bringing state-of-the-art technology products and
solutions to market. The benefits of high-end video surveillance solutions employing megapixel
cameras and the transition from analog to IP-based systems is an exciting growth category to
embrace with a leader like Arecont Vision,” said Mr. Oerbjerg.
With over 23 years of sales and management experience within the security industry, Marc
Wesley joins the Arecont Vision team after his previous positions at global security firms such as
Pelco U.K.. Ltd., Dedicated Micros and Norbain. Mr. Wesley, as the new Regional Sales
Manager for the U.K. and Ireland will be focusing on building new sales channels throughout
the region while promoting Arecont Vision’s multi-megapixel camera technology solutions.
“Although the British and Irish markets were some of the earliest adopters of CCTV
technologies for public spaces, this market remains ever changing. Megapixel technology is
in high demand for every vertical market and new installation, and I look forward to growing
with Arecont Vision here in the U.K. and Ireland,” commented Mr. Wesley.
Aleksey Berezin joined the Arecont Vision team in 2006, and over the past 5 years, worked in
the facilities management, IT and domestic sales departments. He currently acts as Manager
of IT in addition to his new role as the Regional Sales Manager for Russia and other
Commonwealth Independent States, as well as the Republic of Georgia. “I have risen
through the ranks here at Arecont Vision, and as one of the original employees of the
company, I have witnessed first-hand how the security industry has grown and equipment has
evolved in such a short period of time. I hope to continue to ‘lead the way in megapixel
technology’ through the anticipated success of Arecont Vision in the Russian region,” stated
Mr. Berezin.
“The European marketplace is important and continues to grow along with the demand for
Arecont Vision megapixel camera technology,” said Scott Schafer, Executive Vice President,
Arecont Vision. “Integrators and end-users in these regions have quickly embraced the use of
megapixel cameras to significantly improve image quality, boost system functionality and
minimize costs. The appointments of Waldemar, Bo, Marc and Alex will help us continue that
momentum.”
