How Felix Media Solutions Stays Ahead

Having a personal connection to Kyiv and a desire to make a difference, Lionel Felix, CEO and founder of Felix Media Solutions (FMS), met with Kostiantyn Koshelenko, deputy minister of social policy of Ukraine for digital development, digital transformation, and digitization in Washington, D.C., earlier this fall. FMS has expertise in AV, IoT, GPS and CCTV, and it’s offering its services to assist in post-war rebuilding efforts.

“As CEO [of FMS], I want to direct our tech capabilities toward meaningful work — helping Ukraine rebuild,” Felix declares. “My goal is to become an approved vendor, leveraging my 20 years of global IT experience for this purposeful endeavor.”

Procuring conference-room equipment in Ukraine is a challenge. Despite the work of well-intentioned agencies, progress is slow. Felix says that he’s committed to breaking barriers. “I’m determined to ensure the delivery of essential UC equipment ASAP, even if it means doing it personally,” he passionately vows.

Manufacturers, distributors and integrator peers interested in procuring UC equipment for Ukraine and helping with logistics are encouraged to reach out to [email protected]. “Together, we have weight,” he says. “We have power. We can move the needle.” Felix continues, “Many people look at the past [and think], ‘If I were there, I would have [insert heroic statement].’ Today is tomorrow’s past.”
