Densitron Announces New Broadcast Product and Sales Appointments

CRAWLEY, UK, 17 OCTOBER 2022: Densitron, the global leader in display, touch-based interfaces and specialised ODM+ outsourced product design and development for manufacturers, has announced three new appointments to its leadership team to further accelerate growth in the broadcast vertical. The new appointments are Pete Semerak as SVP of Product, Densitron and Mark Price as SVP of Densitron Broadcast Sales

Semerak brings to his role at Densitron more than 30 years of experience in broadcast media and computing. For more than 8 years, he was Senior Director, Broadcast Engineering and Operations at Avid. While his recent long association with Grass Valley saw him serve variously as Vice President of R&D - Digital Media & Workflow, Vice President of - News Business Unit, and Vice President - Native Apps.

“I am absolutely delighted to be joining Densitron at a point when the company is so evidently going from strength to strength,” says Semerak. “Densitron is uniquely positioned to design and build hardware for broadcast manufacturers, allowing them to focus their engineering efforts on the move to cloud-based software. In addition, our Intelligent Display System (IDS) broadcast control solution, is in a unique position to unify the control of equipment right across the broadcast workflow. I am excited about the potential to further grow and enhance the product range and ensure that even more broadcast manufacturers and end users can enjoy the benefits of Densitron-developed hardware and software.”

With a strong track record of leadership roles in Sales and Operations in sectors including Payments Technology and Logistics, Price brings a broad base of commercial experience to his position as SVP of Densitron Broadcast Sales. Most recently, he was the managing director for EMEA & Americas at the leading cash management solutions provider Consillion.

“I believe in growing businesses through the development of customer-centric propositions promoted through strong customer relationships. This is entirely consistent with the culture at Densitron,” says Price. “As Pete points out, Densitron is already in the very strong position of having a highly successful and popular product range. With the extra capacity I bring to the team, we have the opportunity to ensure that as many broadcast manufacturers as possible are liberated from the development and management of complex broadcast hardware and as many studios can benefit from our unified control system as possible.”

Simon Jones, CEO of Densitron, comments: “Hot on the heels of Densitron’s successful appearance at IBC 2022, I am delighted to confirm three major additions to our team. To their respective product and sales sides of the business, our broadcast business has grown significantly, and we will continue to feed this growth with further additions of talent and capacity to continue scaling. Pete and Mark bring many years of experience, which will take us to the next level of growth.”
