  • Exset makes two key appointments

    Exset makes two key appointments

    MUMBAI: Broadcast technology and solutions company Exset has announced two key international appointments.

    Hema Suri joins the company as director of business development for Strategic Markets, concentrating on Africa and the CIS countries. Meanwhile, Rahul Agarwal has joined Exset as a product manager for set-top boxes (STB) and is focusing on Asian and African markets.

    The appointments reflect continued expansion of the company in 2013, particularly for its Digital Monetisation System (DMS) and its vital ability to counteract the digital divide in emerging markets and empower populations via the TV screen.

    Exset CEO Alex Borland said, “We are pleased to welcome both of these key talents to Exset as the company continues to expand its business in emerging markets. Their experience is invaluable, helping Exset’s customers to take advantage of digitization and to be able to monetize pay-TV networks where previously impossible”.

    Suri’s most recent role has been with BBC Worldwide Channels as regional manager for North India, including Pakistan and Nepal. Prior to that, Suri worked with Logic Eastern, a set-top box, middleware and head-end provider.

    Agarwal brings with him experience of working with broadcast companies including BSkyB and Channel 4 in the UK.

    Digital Monetisation System (DMS) is a solution that bridges the gap between technology and value-added services. It allows digital television platforms to be created that can then be monetised where previously impossible. The result allows populations to benefit from new information and entertainment services, while partnering with governments to achieve digital switchover and bringing social transformation.
