Brian Boakes Leaves EnQii, Joins Camvine
Interesting, we believe that Brian Boakes, a thoroughly nice chap, well known and respected in the UK signage industry with something like 15 years experience in broadcast, media, digital signage and out of home etc has just joined Cambridge Visual Networks
“Cambridge Visual Networks!! Who the hell are they?” we hear you ask – just the same as we did!
We had never heard of Cambridge Visual Networks (often abbreviated to Camvine) but after a bit of research we can see that they are well funded – owners sold a previous business for, err a lot of money đŸ˜‰ and seem to supply low-cost digital signage hardware and software – probably most similar to the folks at ONELAN.
