I am willing to play an active and leading role in accelerating the level of services we can offer in order to meet exhibitors’ needs.”

“Jerry’s extensive knowledge of the British cinema exhibition community makes him the perfect match for our new sales team in the UK,” said Till Cussmann, Ymagis Group’s VP Exhibitor Services. “Likewise, it’s also an ideal timing for our group at a moment where we want to accelerate business in that market, in bringing new efficient and flexible solutions to our clients such as our brand new all-in-one server solution Orchestra.”

“In addition to developing dedicated services to our clients, Jerry will be instrumental in pursuing the deployment of the electronic content delivery network in this market segment” said Manel Carreras, United Kingdom General Manager. “This move follows the acquisition almost a year ago of Arqiva’s assets in UK and Ireland, bringing a total of more than 400 connected cinemas to our global European network of 3,281 sites for content delivery.”
