The EM management team: Ed Kinsella, technical director; Roger Harpum, business development manager; Greg Clarke, system design & client liaison and Mike Wheeler, operations director
UK - EM Acoustics has announced the appointment of Roger Harpum to the position of business development manager. A well-known figure in the professional audio world, Harpum brings nearly 30 years’ experience and a depth of knowledge to the role.
“A chance conversation with an industry friend in December stirred something in me and I decided to make contact with Mike [Wheeler] in January,” explains Harpum. “Following further communication, an eye-opening factory tour and two very productive meetings we all felt that the synergy between us was worth investing in.
“Joining EM at this stage in their journey is incredibly exciting, and having spent time listening to the range of products I have absolutely no doubt that a move to the next level is well under way,” he continues. “In Mike and Ed, the industry has two visionaries who have built a successful company from the ground up over the last 20 years, and their products reflect their vision. I can’t tell you what it means to stand in front of a product and be genuinely impressed rather than indifferent, or worse, disappointed. There’s nothing that disappoints within the EM range - on the contrary, it’s all impressive if not downright breath-taking. I can’t wait to get out there and start introducing EM Acoustics to a wider market.”
Operations director Mike Wheeler comments: “The timing was perfect for all of us. We’ve navigated the pandemic and come out on the front foot and confident in our approach, and our product range has had some very significant recent additions like the Reference Series. This means that we are able to offer complete, front-to-back, high quality solutions for all of our target applications. The market perception of EM Acoustics has already changed significantly, and we think Roger is ideally placed to help us continue that trend.”
