Broadcast veteran Alain Beauvais hired as new director for TAG
LOS ANGELES — TAG Video Systems, the world leader in integrated software-based IP Multiviewers, Probing and Monitoring solutions, has appointed industry veteran Alain Beauvais as director of service and support, effective immediately. The addition exemplifies the Company’s continuing global growth initiative – TAG opened its first U.S.-based office in the LA area earlier this year, and also demonstrates its commitment to support the rapid and worldwide deployment of IP with dedicated resources.
According to Abe Zerbib, company CEO who announced the appointment, adding Beauvais to the team supports the company’s expansion into live production and playout applications – a natural progression with TAG’s innovation in 100% Software and 100% IP for uncompressed workflows such as SMPTE ST 2110 on standard COTS hardware.
“TAG was ahead of the technology curve when the Company launched in 2008 with a 100% software and all IP-based Multiviewer, Probing and Monitoring solution,” says Zerbib. “Now that the industry has fully embraced IP in both compressed and uncompressed formats, we are delighted to have Alain’s deep knowledge and technical skills available to our current customers so they can fully realize the unlimited scalability and agility that our software-deployed solutions bring to them. We are also thrilled to have Alain’s broad experience as a resource to new customers from other markets as we add them to the TAG family.”
Beauvais joins TAG with over two decades of experience in broadcast technology, with a special emphasis in the North American and Asia Pacific regions. Beauvais’s experience extends to a wide range of broadcast sectors, including production, infrastructure, streaming and monitoring. Prior to joining TAG he served in service, sales and support roles for high-profile companies such as Miranda Technologies, Digigram, Haivision and Ross Video.
Beauvais will work closely with sales, R&D and administration to ensure customers benefit from the full advantage of TAG’s all-IP, all-software technology.
