AES Corporation, a manufacturer of long-range private wireless communications equipment, announced its appointment of Candyce Plante to Senior Director of Marketing. Widely regarded for her ability to drive industry adoption of disruptive technologies, Plante will focus on broadening awareness and market expansion of AES' patented mesh network-based alarm communication solutions.
“This is a very exciting time to be joining AES. Alarm companies are struggling with how to replace technology that is based on 2G and 3G before service providers switch to 4G and 5G, and they're looking for a solution that isn't beholden to these third parties and won't suffer from obsolescence. That is exactly where AES shines,” said Plante. “With AES' groundbreaking mesh technology, alarm dealers and installers get a fire and burglary communication system that is completely owner-controlled, isn't dependent on service provider infrastructures and is proven at delivering superior reliability and higher recurring revenue over the long term. I looking forward to helping AES capitalize on this fantastic opportunity.”
“Candyce has an impressive track record of creating demand for technologies like ours that transform how businesses operate. We're thrilled to have Candyce join our management team and apply her considerable expertise to AES, as we aggressively market to businesses faced with sunsetting cellular technology,” said Gary Shottes, President of AES Corporation.
Candyce brings extensive technology marketing expertise to AES. A dynamic leader who has established and grown markets for cloud, virtualization and storage technology innovators, she is charged with revitalizing AES' brand and implementing new awareness and customer-acquisition programs in the US and internationally. Previously, in senior marketing roles, Candyce launched and successfully positioned several venture-backed companies for acquisition, and directed channel and product marketing for industry leading technology corporations. She holds a Bachelor of Science degree from Boston University.
