PPDS, the exclusive global provider of Philips Professional Displays and complementary solutions, announces the appointment of Fredrik Lundqvist to its EMEA Technical Sales Support team.
Bringing more than 21 years of ‘top tier’ specialist AV knowledge and experience – applying his trade at some of the world’s most established and recognized display manufacturers – Lundqvist joins the PPDS team as technical manager for the Nordic and Baltic regions.
Based in Stockholm and reporting to PPDS Director Technical Sales Support EMEA, Jan Van Tieghem, Lundqvist offers a broad spectrum of specialist technical skills and industry knowledge – global and local – to PPDS’ flourishing Nordics region. Previous roles include sales manager for hospitality, marketing manager for B2B, technical engineer for B2B, SmartTV manager for B2C, among others.

This includes the full breadth of PPDS’ growing and versatile hardware and software portfolio – including digital signage, ePaper, interactive, and dvLED displays – ensuring seamless installations across all verticals, including retail, hospitality, corporate, education and more.
As part of the team, Lundqvist will also actively provide dedicated support for customers in mastering the application of PPDS’ products, services and solutions; assisting with integration for tailored projects; defining best configurations for unique customer needs, simulating and testing customers set ups ahead of and during installations; and overcoming any interface or compatibility challenges.
