SAM is pleased to announce the appointment of Naresh Subherwal as Managing Director, Middle East, effective immediately.

Tim Thorsteinson, CEO at SAM, said, With his 25 years of experience in global sales and spearheading business development initiatives - including many years with Snell - Naresh has the knowledge and expertise necessary to strengthen our footprint in the Middle East and drive the business forward. It's a privilege to welcome him to our team as we continue to expand our reach in the region.

This is a great opportunity for me to give SAM continued success with these emerging technologies while carving out a path in the Middle East - which is a strong and growing market for the company. I'm eager to help SAM further define its strategy and deliver the highest quality products to its customers in the region.
