Uniserve Announces New CEO
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
"Smart City Solutions Authority sees great opportunity"
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 15, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uniserve
Communications Corporation ("Uniserve") is pleased to announce the appointment
of Nicholas Jeffery, a former Director of the Data Centre Solutions group at
CBRE (the world's largest commercial real estate services firm) as its new CEO
effective March 1st, 2017. Mr. Jeffery will be moving from London to Vancouver,
with his wife and young family joining him in the spring.
At CBRE, Mr. Jeffery was responsible for client strategy, advising data center
owners and multinational corporations on data center acquisitions, new product
developments, cloud deployments and new geography strategies. Mr. Jeffery is
also considered an authority on cognitive connected buildings and Smart City
solutions, and led this portfolio for CBRE in Europe.
With over 25 years of telecommunications, media and technology experience, Mr.
Jeffery was previously the European Managing Director of PSINet Europe. He was
part of the executive team that acquired PSINet for $15m and was sold two years
later for $150m to Telstra and Interroute, having taken the business from a $30m
loss to $15m profit in two years. Mr. Jeffery has also been a C-Level executive
at data center and Internet service companies such as Hostmark, Worldport, and
Digital Realty.
Mr. Jeffery said: "I am really excited to be able to combine the
telecommunications and technology capabilities with smart building and smart
city strategies in such a forward thinking city like Vancouver. Uniserve is
perfectly placed to bring these capabilities together to take advantage of the
IOT revolution throughout BC and Alberta. From a solid base, Uniserve intends to
complete the build out of a portfolio of products and services in the B2C and
B2B markets and further invest in core data center infrastructure. I also see
excellent opportunities for growth in the Enterprise IT solutions sector, and we
intend to strengthen the existing team to support clients' data security,
sovereignty, storage and hybrid cloud requirements. Combined with Uniserve's
Canadian-based customer service capabilities and existing network provisioning,
Uniserve is primed for significant growth".
