Surbiton, Surrey – 1st February 2019 – Viadex Limited, the global IT infrastructure, and deployment specialists, today announced the appointment of Steve Pearson to the role of Vice President, Global Partner Services.
Steve joins Viadex from a 12-year career with Ingram Micro where, from 2010, he held the position of Senior Director for Global Business Solutions. In the newly created role of VP for Global Partner Services at Viadex, Steve will work with a dedicated team delivering projects around the world in support of channel partners who seek to expand their own global capabilities.

Commenting on Steve’s appointment, Viadex CEO, Dino Cooper, who co-founded Viadex in 2001 says: “Steve’s arrival reinforces an already strong global team and adds another dimension to our ability to make a valuable contribution to the global growth of our channel partners. We have worked with Steve for over two years in his role at Ingram Micro and he has brought so much value and drive to our upward trajectory that it was logical to invite him onto the team. His acceptance of the role is a real testament to the potential we’ve got bottled up inside us at Viadex and Steve is the person to unleash this.
Our channel partners will now find even more value in Viadex support; extending beyond the practical problem-solving side of opening up opportunities around the world, with an enriched strategic approach to identifying growth areas.”
In 2018 Viadex opened new offices in Dubai, adding the United Arab Emirates to its local region presence spanning Asia, Africa, and the USA. Viadex offers in-market support from hubs in Singapore, the USA, South Africa, Gibraltar, the UK, and Dubai.
Steve Pearson says: “My passion is about getting things done for channel partners. That is contingent on working with the right people in the right place. Viadex liked the fact that I have trusting and very dependable networks of hands-on experts who support me anywhere in the world. What I love about Viadex is the contagious enthusiasm and determination in a talented and deeply experienced team.
The collective strength of the Viadex team, human capital, and existing partnerships, coupled with my own personal experience, contacts, and knowledge, allow us to accelerate and expand our capability and reach, to enable us to deliver what our partners need anywhere they need it”.
