Crestron Bolsters Ranks for Next Phase in Asia Pacific

May 09, 2019

Three years ago, Crestron famously embarked on a very ambitious expansion program in the Asia Pacific region. With new direct facilities across Australia, NZ, India, Singapore and NE Asia, Crestron has successfully established an enormous footprint in the region.

Stuart Craig, CEO Asia Pacific comments “The last three years in Asia Pacific have been a tremendous success. We have invested a lot of time and resources in this region. We have been building new offices, creating Experience Centres for our customers, new training facilities, new support programs and we now have a staff of over 300 in the region. Every which way you look at it, this program has been very successful. We are very proud of our team and all they continue to achieve. 

"We now offer our customers in Asia Pacific the full Crestron experience”. 

Now the company is investing and expanding again with a new executive management team to steer Crestron to new heights. 

“As we roll out our new Pixel Perfect NVX, new Cloud initiatives and our new Crestron Flex UC Range, the time is right to bolster our team and push ahead again. We are fortunate to offer our team and our customers some of the most experienced personnel in the industry” explains Stuart.
