Ben and Matthew are charged with accelerating Agilysys' continued growth in the EMEA region.
Ben brings over 25 years of international hospitality experience in both property management and as a software solution sales executive, most recently as General Manager of Verteda Limited, an Agilysys reseller in EMEA. Ben has a proven track record of developing and executing business growth strategies and a commitment to customer service, most notably working with large customers in the Sports & Entertainment market.
Matthew recently held senior positions at Verteda, including Business Development Director and Sales Director, and was most recently Managing Director for MSL Solutions' new UK subsidiary following MSL Solutions' acquisition of Verteda. His hospitality career began over 25 years ago in the Far East and includes senior management roles with 5-star hotels as well as at solution vendor MICROS.
Both Ben and Matthew are rejoining Agilysys as former senior employees of Agilysys Europe prior to Agilysys' divestiture of its European operations in 2014. Both continued with the divested company, which became Verteda.
"We are excited to welcome Ben and Matthew back to the Agilysys team. With their deep roots in Agilysys solutions and well-established networks, Ben and Matthew will bring robust experience and fresh ideas to help Agilysys grow in EMEA as Agilysys continues to build a strong presence in the global hospitality marketplace," said Don DeMarinis, SVP, Sales & Marketing - Americas & EMEA.
