As it expands its business out of Europe, video compression firm V-Nova has appointed Bill Hendler as vice president of US sales.

Hendler was previously CTO at Chyron, director of strategic development for LiveU and key account sales director with Imagine Communications. He will now be responsible for helping spearhead V-Nova’s efforts in video compression and live contribution as well as advancing the flagship Perseus compression codec into the US market.

“Bill is a seasoned professional with substantial experience working with broadcasters, service providers, media companies and sport organisations,” says Matt Hughes, SVP, Global Sales, V-Nova. “He brings an extensive professional network within the media space that will help expand our market share and influence on the industry.”

Hendler will work closely with Hughes and V-Nova’s leadership team, the company said.

“I am thrilled to join V-Nova at a time of tremendous opportunity and growth,” said Hendler. "V-Nova has a long-standing history of entrepreneurial spirit and innovation in the media space. I look forward to expanding our market presence and influence to effectively improve our value proposition to customers through offering leading products and services.”

The news comes shortly after the company announced significant investment from Novator Partners.
