Fast growing, high value-added retailer Nuvias has appointed Simon England as its new CEO. Thanks to a comprehensive and relevant expertise in IT value distribution, Simon will lead the development of Nuvias and, relying on a rich offer of services and solutions, will support the group in becoming the main value distributor in Europe, accelerating growth and business of channel partners.
Simon England has been empowering and leading companies in the world of value distribution for 30 years. Previously, he led as SVP Next Generation Technologies, the development of new segments and business models for Tech Data, as well as significantly expanding the company's operations across Europe, under the Azlan, Datech and Maverick brands, in role of SVP Value Added Business.
