Will lead the sales, deployment, and
installation of Remark's AI-powered Smart Safety Platform ("SSP")
and Smart Sentry Products in the Latin American region including
Mexico and South America
LAS
VEGAS, Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Remark
Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: MARK), a diversified global technology
company with the leading artificial intelligence ("AI") powered
computer vision solutions, today announced that Omar Castro had joined the company as Director
of Latin American Sales and Business Development, where he is
leading the sales, deployment, and installation of Remark's Smart
Safety Platform and Smart Sentry Products among the many clients he
has successfully worked with in the airport, mining, public safety,
retail, and transportation sectors.
Omar brings the rare twin skills of technical prowess and
business development. As a software developer and later as a sales
engineer for Trueface, a leading computer vision security company
that was acquired by Pangiam, a security technology firm founded by
the former Head of Homeland Security, Omar quickly worked his way
up to lead Latin American sales and business development, working
with airports and other clients in the transportation
sector.
"After spending the past five years building the Latin American
business for Pangiam, I was asked by our clients in the airport,
mining, public safety, retail, and transportation sectors to find a
real-time AI-powered solution that can provide situational alerts
when incidents occurred, which is preventative, rather than
waiting for post-incident forensic investigation data after the
fact with damage has already been done," says Omar Castro. "With the recent riots and unrest
spreading throughout Mexico and
Latin America, Remark's solutions
are timely and eagerly awaited as an extra layer of preventative
security for our customers in the airport, mining, public safety,
retail and transportation industries."
"We are excited to enter the Latin American markets with the
hiring of Omar Castro, whose track
record in building the Latin American business for Pangium and
extensive industry relationships will benefit both Remark and the
customers we are servicing in the hospitality, public security and
retail sectors," says Kai-Shing Tao,
Chief Executive Officer of Remark Holdings. "Omar has developed the
proven trust to successfully expand our customer base to the Latin
American region by leveraging his bilingual skills and industry
relationships.
