Visiopharm Expands Into the Benelux Region with New Office and Leadership











Hørsholm, DK (PRWEB) September 29, 2014

Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg) is an important hot-spot for the adoption of Digital Pathology in routine diagnostics in Europe. Over the last few years, Visiopharm has tested, validated, and implemented a CE IVD-marked Laboratory Information System (LIS) driven image analysis software for automating key aspects of the diagnostic workflow in leading Scandinavian pathology labs. There has simultaneously been a growing interest in these solutions throughout Benelux.

In order to support customers in Benelux, Visiopharm has established a branch office in the Netherlands. Mr. Jan Pijnenburg has been appointed as Sales Director, and will start on October 1, 2014. “We are very impressed with Mr. Jan Pijnenburg, and his deep and profound understanding of the clinical Digital Pathology field, including how it has changed over the recent years. He has a unique background with a practical and educational foundation in pathology, combined with a long and successful track-record at Dako and at Thermo-Fisher. This makes Jan the ideal partner to guide pathology labs safely through the implementation of Digital Pathology efficiently into their workflows, and an important addition to Visiopharm’s interdisciplinary team of experts,” says Michael Grunkin, CEO of Visiopharm.

“In order for Digital Pathology to become widely accepted and adopted in routine diagnostics it really has to solve two important problems: It has to make pathologists more productive and it must enable pathologists to provide data with a higher quality than is currently possible. Visiopharm has the innovation, vision, and technical capabilities required for accomplishing these aims. Plus, Visiopharm has taken the necessary steps to obtain robust clinical documentation and regulatory clearance for their system. I am excited about the opportunity to help pathologists in Benelux benefit from these new technical advances in Digital Pathology,” says Jan Pijnenburg.

Visiopharm is the leading Digital Pathology image analysis company to combine technical depth and sophistication with scientific and regulatory rigor for Clinical Cancer Diagnostics and Research.

The newly repositioned FierceWireless:Europe / Telecoms EMEA publication will retain both veteran editors—Anne Morris and Michael Carroll—providing an enhanced global perspective for readers in the markets of Europe, Middle East and Africa. The publication will also increase in frequency from twice weekly to three times weekly and will now offer even deeper coverage of industry news and events.

In addition, Telecom Asia, established in 1990 and now the leading publication for the region’s telecom executives, will maintain its in-market analysis of Asian telecommunications developments for over 30,000 daily newsletter and print subscribers.

“We are thrilled to be part of this global telecom platform – the only true platform with local editorial, audience development and client service capabilities in each major Geographic market,” said Gigi Chan, Publisher, Telecom Asia and TelecomsEMEA. “This renewed commitment to editorial quality and expanded reach combined with the increased frequency confirms our position as the first place to turn for global telecoms news.”

All of these media properties will now be available to advertisers for targeted regional and integrated global media and content marketing campaigns reaching a combined 275,000 industry executives through email, web, in-person events and awards programs.

“The depth of our reach in this market also means an enhanced experience for the advertiser,” said Nelson. “We now offer a unified global marketing platform to reach carriers across the Americas, EMEA, and Asia.”

Sandton Capital Partners Expands Activities in Europe, Opens UK Office











London, UK (PRWEB) September 13, 2012

Sandton Capital Partners, a US-based firm focused on alternative credit investments, today announced the opening of a new office in London, headed by Tim Vieth.

Founded in 2009 by Rael Nurick and Tom Wood, Sandton purchases under-performing and non-performing loans from banks and non-bank financial institutions, with a focus on loans to small and middle market businesses. These loans are most often secured by business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment (e.g., aircraft, ships, heavy machinery). Sandton also provides credit directly to businesses facing operational and financial challenges. The firm is headquartered in New York City, with additional US offices in Los Angeles and North Carolina.

Prior to joining Sandton Capital, Mr. Vieth was a member of the Corporate Debt and Risk Solutions Group at The Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS).

At Sandton, he will focus on sourcing, underwriting and managing new credit investments throughout Europe.

Rael Nurick, founding partner of Sandton said, “We have been active in Europe for 18 months and our firm’s strategy has been very well received to date. Tim, with his thorough grasp of illiquid credit markets and strong relationships in the financial sector, is the perfect choice to broaden and deepen our activities there.”

Tom Wood, also a founding partner of Sandton said, “Given the challenges facing European credit markets, we believe that Sandton can be a valued source of liquidity for deleveraging banks and borrowers facing financing difficulties. We are very fortunate to have Tim on board to guide and expand our business in Europe.”

In speaking of the new role, Mr. Vieth highlighted the strength and unique nature of the Sandton Capital platform: “I am excited to join a strong team with a proven track record of investing in challenged, esoteric and illiquid credits. The European market is in need of new sources of capital and Sandton is well equipped to play a meaningful role in the process of bank deleveraging and corporate restructuring.”

In addition to Mr. Vieth’s experience in corporate debt origination, he was instrumental in building the emerging markets structured finance business at ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and traded currency and equity derivatives on the Chicago Mercantile and American Stock Exchanges.

As The Need For Professional Coaches Expands Source Point Training Announces Open Enrollment for Fall Program Coaching Fundamentals and Mastery











Barbara Fagan


Healdsburg, CA (PRWEB) August 06, 2012

Rising demand for executive coaching programs is helping to increase income potential for well trained, certified coaches according to Barbara Fagan, co-founder of Source Point Training (http://www.source pointtraining.com).

According to the 2012 ICF Global Coaching Study, revenues from professional coaching has nearly doubled over the past few years: globally to $ 1.9 billion, $ 707 million in North America alone. The same report shows that in North America the average annual income has risen to about $ 50,000 with median annual incomes at about $ 30,000. Industry trends also show that top-earners are now earning in excess of $ 65,000 a year.

“Rising demand is not only coming from corporations, but from individuals who want more productivity at the workplace and greater satisfaction from their work,” says Fagan. “And the rise in demand is fueled by report after report that shows how effective professional executive coaching really is.”

Fagan shares, “Many people ask me about Life Coaching and what the difference is from our designation at Source Point Training of Certified Professional Performance Coaches (CPPC). When studying with people like Dr. Covey, Larry Wilson, Lou Tice and the works of Peter Druker, I observed similarities in each of their philosophies in one key area – objective results.”

At Source Point Training, we teach our coaches the ground of being performance coaches which is ontological. This means that as we are coaching on particular outcomes, we are also seeing all the inter-dependencies and what will change as a result of achieving a desired outcome.

“In order to be effective today, we cannot live our life in a set of compartments,” says Fagan. “The way that our world is changing, we see the cross over between work, play, family, friends and business associates.”

In Fundamentals and Mastery of Performance Coaching, we equip each participant with knowledge, skills and abilities to become a professional performance coach. Fagan is proud that the ICF has approved their curriculum for 141 CCE units. That’s more than most other coach training organizations.

Program: Fundamentals of Performance Coaching, 84.5 CCE units

Training Dates: Sept. 14-16; Dec. 7-9, 2012; and Feb. 22-24, 2013

Location: Phoenix, AZ

Program: Mastery of Performance Coaching, 56.5 CCE units

Training Dates: April 12-14; June28-30, 2013

Location: Phoenix, AZ

There is a stronger case than ever for offering employee coaching in the workplace, according to new research conducted by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) based in the UK. The report, entitled “Taking the Temperature of Coaching,” highlights coaching as a cornerstone of high performance that focuses on the professional development of individual employees. “Coaching continues to be important in maintaining high performance and developing more agile employees, work practices and organizations [sic],” says Dr. John McGurk, adviser for learning and talent at CIPD.

“Companies with a coaching culture have a proven record of higher levels of employee engagement. Right now is a great time to develop these skills as competition for recruiting and retaining the best talent becomes more competitive as businesses recover and expand”. Fagan shares, “We certify our coaches as Performance Coaches because we feel this is where coaching is headed – coaching higher levels of personal and professional performance.”

People who find themselves in a career transition and who have extensive life experiences in different fields see being a professional coach as a means to generate income and contribute to others. Medical and therapeutic practitioners, fitness trainers and physical therapists are taking up coaching to increase client progress. “This is a great time to become a professional coach,” Fagan adds.

Fagan will be hosting a live webinar on August 21st to answer more questions about coaching trends for today and how you might be a candidate to become a Certified Professional Performance Coach. She will conduct a real time coaching session with people who attend this session. You can join her presentation by registering at Source Point Training Webinars.

See this video testimonial by recent graduates of Source Point Training’s Coaching Fundamentals and Mastery Certification programs.
