John will be responsible for providing specialist IP and network pre and post sales support, as well as offering design and technical assistance on large projects.

“Samsung is in the process of substantially increasing its Ipolis IP and network product range and I am therefore extremely pleased to be given the opportunity to take on this important role," said John. “I will be focussed on ensuring Samsung’s growing network of customers throughout Europe are equipped with all the information they need to feel totally confident about recommending Samsung IP based security solutions.”

John’s appointment reflects Samsung’s belief that there is now clear evidence that the number of IP network based security systems is growing rapidly and will soon account for the majority of new medium to large sized systems across Europe. Consultants, installers and system integrators are also increasingly recommending IP network based surveillance solutions for new smaller projects and system upgrades.
