I am pleased to announce Staffan Pehrson as Eric Cooney's successor to lead Solution Area TV, which primarily includes TANDBERG Television, commencing April 15. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Staffan will be charged to continue growing this important and strategic area within Ericsson.
Staffan has a long and extensive career within Ericsson since joining in 1993, working in all areas from R&D and Product Management to Sales throughout Europe and the United States.
