Pebble Beach Systems builds on success in Asia Pacific with key new appointment 02 February 2015

News

Leading automation, content management and integrated channel specialist Pebble Beach Systems today announced a number of contracts in the Asia Pacific, and the appointment of Ng Tze Ming as Regional Sales Manager to help further grow the company's business in this key region.

New appointment Ng Tze Ming has been involved in the broadcast industry for many years, having started his career as a post-production and audio engineer with Cuevision in the late 90s. He went on to gain experience as an online and offline video editor, then as a sales and support engineer for broadcast equipment resellers. He most recently held the position of Sales Manager for the Media Village Pte., working with vendors including Blackmagic Design, Autodesk, Adobe, Editshare, Telestream, Quantum and Dolby. Ming is based in Singapore, along with the Pebble Beach Systems' Asia Pacific Support office.

The company's Sales Director Tom Gittins confirms: Ming's appointment reinforces our commitment to this important market, enabling us to better support our customers and network of resellers. We have seen a marked increase in activity in the Asia Pacific region over the past months, with significant contracts coming in from broadcasters in Malaysia, Thailand and Taiwan, and Ming will interface closely with our regional pre and post-sales support personnel as activities increase.

The company announces that a major Kuala Lumpur-based broadcaster has elected to install Marina automation controlling Pebble Beach Systems' Dolphin integrated channel technology to deliver 4 on air channels with integrated graphics and subtitling. The system is due for completion in Q2 of 2015.

Furthermore, one of Thailand's major Pay TV operators, CTH in Bangkok, has installed a Marina automation solution controlling Harmonic servers for its sports channels, and a Marina Lite system is currently being installed at new broadcaster Thairath TV.

In Taiwan, nationwide cable TV network CTi TV is currently expanding its Marina automation system, which controls Grass Valley K2 servers, adding new HD channels as Phase 2 of the project gets underway.

Tom Gittins confirms These successes are across projects which are each very different in scope. The introduction last year of Marina Lite, and the ability of all our range to handle simple clip-based channels as well as complex channels with late-breaking changes, gives Pebble solutions the flexibility to address the widest possible range of broadcast applications. This, together with the strong team we are building, puts us in the strongest possible position to serve broadcasters in the region.
