LiveU, a specialist in live IP-video contribution, production and distribution solutions, is deepening its commitment to the German-speaking market with the appointment of two new team members in Germany. LiveU says the expansion represents a significant step in its strategy to provide in-person consultations in local languages and deepen personal relations with key customers and partners in the region.

The two new hires, Thomas Fengel and Wolfgang Jauer, bring valuable market knowledge and deep industry experience to their respective roles.

Fengel, based close to Mannheim, joins as Regional Sales Manager DACH & The Netherlands. He brings 35 years of sales experience, including a decade at Philips Electronics, later NXP Semiconductors, specialising in broadcast reception (DVB-T, C & S Tuners). He has held positions ranging from Internal Sales and Area Sales Management to Regional Sales Director. Since 2019, Fengel has been working in the broadcast industry at AETA Audio Systems with a focus on contribution in news and sports.

Jauer, based in Hamburg, joins the Business Development team for the sports vertical, covering EMEA and APAC. With 20 years of experience in sports marketing, host broadcasting and TV production of sports events, Jauer began his career at Sportfive, where he developed the group’s Asian operations and set up its TV production department, responsible for host broadcasting of international sports events. He later joined Infront Sports and its affiliate HBS as Director of BD for production and digital solutions. He joins LiveU following five years at QVEST Engage, an OTT experience specialist, where he headed international business development.

“We are excited to welcome additional industry experts who are dedicated to supporting our valued customers and partners. Thomas and Wolfgang complement an existing local LiveU team of professionals covering domains such as sales engineering, product management, marketing and event support. This is in line with the company’s strategy of getting closer to our customers in key markets, enabling us to respond even faster with tailored solutions that create more value from video,” commented Zion Eilam, VP Sales EMEA, LiveU.
