Lucy Dyer, 23 July 2010

Chris Wade has been appointed as executive chairman of VC-Net to help the company reach what it is calling a new breed of 'smarter corporate'.

VC-Net was founded in 2000, to integrate video conferencing products with existing voice and data network infrastructures. The company has recorded a sales growth rate of more than 20 per cent every year since conception.

Chris Wade has more than 30 years of experience of running large telecoms vendor companies and said 'We see video conferencing as an essential business service that is easily outsourced in the same way that our clients outsource their payroll services. We are seeing the rise of the ‘smarter corporate’ who use video conferencing to create globally integrated businesses. As a result VC-Net’s current sales pipeline is more than 100 per cent greater than 12 months ago.'
