GMG Names New President and VP

Joe Varone and Paulo Monteiro have been promoted to serve as President and Vice President of Sales, respectively, at GMG Americas, subsidiary of Germany-based colour-management-systems developer GMG.

Varone had been leading the sales organization of GMG Americas in addition to undertaking general management responsibilities. With his new position, Varone will yield his day-to-day sales activities to Monteiro and concentrate solely on general management and strategic initiatives, overseeing all corporate departments.

“GMG Americas has seen growth not only in revenues, but also in the product portfolio we all manage at GMG that is targeted to a wider swath of graphics, printing and packaging companies,” said Ian Scott, Managing Director, GmbH & Co. KG. “This presents exceptional opportunity for us, but also requires more, directed attention towards strategic planning.”

Monteiro previously served as Business Director, Latin America, GMG Americas, and has been an executive with the company for nearly 10 years. He has been responsible for building and managing distribution channels for GMG colour management software throughout Central and South America. Monteiro is now responsible for increasing GMG’s coverage not only in Latin America, but in the rest of North America, including all regions of Canada.
