He also spent 10 years in the role of producer and creative director for clients in the Asia Pacific region, which included Montblanc and Louis Vuitton.
‘When the opportunity arose I had no hesitation as it is such an innovative company with world class products,’ enthused Mr Fitzpatrick. ‘Having used Hippotizer media servers for the last few years I was hooked on their power and versatility, and it allowed our creative team to produce amazing visuals for our events. I will be working with all our distributors and clients in the region to help support and promote the Hippotizer product range throughout the rapidly expanding Asian market,’ he concluded.
‘We are very pleased to welcome Justin to the team,’ said Samantha Bailey, head of sales. ‘He not only has a wealth of sales experience, but is also well versed in the product. We are confident that his appointment will not only support the existing customers but will help us gain new ones.’ Ms Bailey will be spending several weeks in Asia this spring where she will introduce Mr Fitzpatrick to the company’s distributors.
