Lance Shumaker to lead Scodix in North America

Shumaker will be responsible for sales, customer support, marketing and operations in both the American and Canadian markets, effective immediately.

His career spans more than 25 years of management of high-tech and new technology companies in the graphic arts and commercial printing markets. Prior to joining Scodix, he held executive management positions with Scitex and Indigo, and more recently Advanced Vision Technology (AVT).

‘In my career, I’ve had the good fortune to be on the ground floor of several revolutionary and earth-shaking innovations,’ Shumaker said. ‘As an executive in the early years of Indigo, I’m well aware of the opportunities and challenges that face true innovators, such as Scodix.

‘I am excited about engaging the North American marketplace and helping them to realize the value of Scodix technology and the profitable impact it can have on today’s printers.’

Dror Danai, executive vice-president for global sales and business development at Scodix, said: ‘Scodix continues to grow and capture the North American market, one major service provider at a time, and is increasing both the mindshare and market share.

‘This is clearly in evidence by the tremendous impact our systems are having on our customers and their business. Adding a strong experienced individual with a successful track record, such as Lance Shumaker’s, to our growing professional team not only demonstrates our dedication to the marketplace’s needs, but will further increase our access and penetration in the North American marketplace.’

Scodix is to feature as part of Dscoop 2014, taking place March 6-8 in Orlando, as well as at Ipex 2014 in London at the end of March.
