As part of the company's U.S. investment, VuWall has appointed Dan Gundry as the new vice president and managing director of VuWall USA. In addition, Maryse Montagne has been promoted from vice president of sales, North America, to executive vice president of strategic alliances.
"In the last few years, VuWall has grown significantly and gained market shares internationally and in the U.S.," said Paul Vander Plaetse, founder and CEO at VuWall.

Gundry is a well-respected control room specialist with 20 years of experience in the audiovisual industry. He most recently led the control room solutions group of integration firm Vistacom and turned this niche group into one of the premier control room integrators in the U.S. Bringing a passion for the command-and-control market to his new role, he has a deep appreciation of VuWall's integrator and consultant network and a track record of growth and success as a leader.

In the last six years, Montagne has been an instrumental sales leader, placing VuWall on the map in North America while playing a major role in VuWall's growth by building sales processes that consider the whole customer journey, from the first contact to the final delivery. Her deep understanding of the business, technology, and global environment in which VuWall evolves as well as her ability to build strong partnerships put her in the best condition to lead the coordinated efforts to support VuWall's global accounts and build strong synergies with the company's technology partners.
