A new CEO in the driving seat

Having played an active role in the audio visual (AV) industry for the past 40 years, Kramer Electronics has announced the appointment of its new chief executive officer to continue to drive business forward.

The company is working to drive its software and cloud-based initiatives to support and adopt new business models which are specifically tailored to the needs of the AV industry.

Itzhak Bambagi has over 18 years’ experience in leadership and has undertaken key executive roles at IBM and Digital/Compaq.

Bambagi will focus on utilising tighter integration, software and cloud-driven functionality of the company’s advanced pro AV solutions.

The way customers consume IT and AV in an Internet of Things (IoT) enabled world will have a tremendous impact on our industry

Commenting on the new role, Bambagi says: “Bringing software and cloud components further into the pro AV arena is the next step. By allowing remote support and management, we can bring standard uniformity to multisite installations, wherever they are in the world.

“The way customers consume IT and AV in an Internet of Things (IoT) enabled world will have a tremendous impact on our industry. Converging technologies bring a multitude of challenges and opportunities with software-driven solutions, cloud power and scalability as well as opportunities for new business models, such as AV as a Service (AVaaS).

“We aim to reinforce Kramer as the ‘go-to’ brand for pro AV remote management and cloud advancements.”
