Broad Sky Networks Expands Leadership with Addition of Veteran Channel Executive, Ron Ireland
Bend, OR – January 2018 – Broad Sky Networks, the nation’s leading provider of innovative wireless connectivity solutions, today announced the expansion of its executive leadership team with the hiring of Ron Ireland as its President.
Ireland, previously the Senior Director of Channel Development at Vonage Business, brings 20 years of expertise to his new position where he will be responsible for the company’s growth strategies, operational improvements, and sales channel optimization. A tenured channel veteran, Ireland previously served as the President and CFO at TMC Communications and as CFO at SimpleSignal, which was later acquired by Vonage. With his proven track record for growing channel-focused companies, Ireland is enthusiastic about his new opportunity with Broad Sky Networks.
“I’m thrilled to be back at a company that is 100% channel focused,” said Ireland. “Broad Sky is making major strides in IoT through its wireless and satellite solutions. This technology-focused strategy, coupled with the installation and solution deployment abilities of sister company, TechLink, add up to a great customer experience and an easy sell for our Channel Partners. I’m looking forward to working with the team to continue their strong commitment to building a robust channel partner program and helping partners get these solutions to market.”
Broad Sky has seen tremendous growth recently, landing the company on the Inc 5000 List of Fastest Growing US Companies in 2015, 2016, and 2017. The company’s strategic approach to the market, valuable channel relationships, and specialty in the area of 4G/LTE wireless for M2M and IoT equipment are the primary drivers of recent company growth, according to Broad Sky CEO, Mike Mudd.
“We’re excited to broaden our capabilities in the channel with Ireland taking a leadership position. His decades of experience and success in building high-performing channel organizations is a valuable addition to our go-to-market strategy,” said Mudd. “We’ve laid the foundation for partners to extend our wireless solutions to their customers, and I’m excited to work with Ireland to help both partners and customers achieve success with Broad Sky’s wireless solutions.”
