Boise, ID (PRWEB via MobilityNewswire) November 1, 2005 -- MobileDataforce, the leading provider of rapid application development solutions for mobile environments (RADS-ME), today announced the inception of MobileDataforce Europe, B.V. and the appointment of Mr. J. David Savage as Vice President, EMEA. This move is designed to solidify the Company’s European presence through local representation and a European executive who has extensive experience in the mobility space.
Savage has spent the last 6 years running Extended Systems' business operations in the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxemburg) and Greece. Savage was the founding manager of Extended Systems Benelux B.V. and for the last 3 years was in charge of European Partnerships for Extended Systems’ mobile middleware products. Prior to his position with ESI, Mr. Savage held a position as sales manager at a Benelux importer/distributor of network and mobile connectivity products.
As vice president of EMEA for MobileDataforce, Savage is tasked with managing the hyper-growth currently occurring in Europe for MDF through developing partnerships and direct sales efforts for both PointSync and Intercue product lines provided by MDF.
"Savage has proven himself to be a mobilization visionary as well as an executive that can execute on plan.” said MobileDataforce’s Executive Vice President David Hofacker. “His participation on the management team of MobileDataforce and his focus on developing the EMEA market for the Company are vital to MDF’s growth plan. His impact will be felt immediately.”
The Company’s European presence will capitalize on MobileDataforce’s unique offering to the vertical mobile application space and help it to capitalize on the unaddressed demand for cost-effective mobile applications designed specifically for individual businesses.
According to Savage, “Mobility is not a product, it’s a process. MobileDataforce has the vision and unique product offering necessary to be successful because their combined solution set is essential to the process. I’m looking forward to being an integral part of it through driving European operations and establishing bi-directional value added partnerships in the European marketplace.”
