Last time we’ve heard about modu, they’ve prove us they make the world’s lightest mobile phone and they’ve even got the Guinness World Records to confirm that. Now in just two weeks they issued two releases, announcing new offices in Austria and Korea.
modu plans to use the newly opened Austrian office as the base for its European sales activities, to “deal with growing MNO demand.” Head of European Sales at modu, Mr. Karl Pfister — who has more than 20 years experience at leading global companies such as Samsung, Nokia (NYSE: NOK), Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ), Sony, and Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) — will lead the new office.
As for the Korean office, they will be a hub for the company’s industrial design and mechanical engineering activities, drawing on the large pool of design talent and manufacturing skills on offer in the region. The Korean team will be led by Mr. Youngha Lee, former CTO of Pantech & Curitel.
On a similar note – We’re excited to announce that Zack Weisfeld, VP of Marketing and Strategy at modu will have 6 minutes to present modu and its ecosystem at the IVA Conference taking place on May 19-20, in order for a chance to receive automatic entry as a finalist at Demo Germany as well as a profile on Red Herring Magazine.
