He also holds degrees from the University of Maryland and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and was a Fighter Pilot in the Navy. “I have watched Mersive create a first-of-its-kind collaboration tool and grow into something very special,” says Blazy. “Our Solstice collaboration platform will fundamentally change the way we engage with technology for meetings and shared learning. Leading the company into the next era of innovation alongside a rock-solid team is exciting, and we are entering the next era of Solstice innovation and revenue growth. We’re excited to show the market our revamped product roadmap in the coming months.”
Alan Young, a proven technology, business leader, and innovator with more than 20 years of experience in product management, strategy, M&A, and a patent portfolio, joins Mersive as Chief Product Officer. He has served in product and executive roles at both PE-owned and public corporations such as PWC, CA Technologies, and most recently, InRule Technology. He holds computer science and business degrees from the University of Texas and Boston University, respectively. “The demand for next-generation, interactive collaboration solutions is growing, and Solstice is the trailblazing product that other companies are trying to emulate. I look forward to working alongside Damian and the Mersive leadership team to refine an already excellent tool to make it even more innovative, useful, collaborative, and exciting via ongoing improvements and updates to Solstice’s software and hardware,” says Young.
Joel Carroll, who joined Mersive in 2020, has been promoted to Executive Vice President of Sales. Bringing a new level of audio-video (AV) expertise to the Mersive culture, Carroll has been instrumental in driving the company’s sales over the last three years. Prior to joining Mersive, he held sales and training roles at various AV companies, including Wolfvision, Atlona, and Extron. “When I talk about Solstice to potential clients, I’m extremely confident because the product is such a useful, interactive, and powerful collaboration tool for the various markets we serve,” says Carroll. “I have never worked with a better team, and I can’t wait to present our more focused and streamlined approach to collaboration at InfoComm in June and beyond.”
