 BSG recruited sales and marketing industry veteran Gary Marks to join CEO Rick Stevenson.

Before accepting his position with Opengear, Marks most recently served as the Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing for Raritan, a power and infrastructure management provider for data centers. Prior to his eight years with Raritan, he held senior executive leadership positions that focused on enterprise sales, marketing and channel growth with Dialogic (an Intel company), Conner Peripherals, AT&T, and Western Digital, where Marks led successful efforts to create a retail channel and a channel partner program.

"Opengear is poised at a very exciting phase in its development," said Marks. “It has a solid customer base and great solutions for data centers and the fast growing remote management market.
