ABOUT PETE

I have over 10 years of experience in product management, marketing, and strategy of hardware and software solutions in multiple areas of the value-chain for high-tech products. I have worked in various organizational roles in emerging markets, turn-around, and fast-growth organizations with product offerings in Stationary and Mobile Touch Screens, Displays, Medical Devices, Compound Semiconductors, Data Storage, High Brightness LEDs, Lasers, Photovoltaic, and Semiconductors industries.

I have a reputation for building strong brands and creating winning product introduction strategies for products ranging from $1 to $1.5M in ASP and leading account penetration and adoption into customer accounts from $50k to $10M+ year. I have vast experience in marketing and selling direct, through OEMs, distributors and sales representatives. I have traveled for business to 13 countries and more than 150 cities worldwide which has made me culturally versed.

My track record is proof of my strong belief that innovation is the most powerful catalyst to increasing market share and revenue growth in any market. As such, I also believe that innovation should take place in the way a product is managed in order to create a significant competitive advantage. As Andrew S. Grove once said: “Only the Paranoid Survive” in the business of high-tech.
