electronic shelf labeling systems for the large-scale retail sector,
is pleased to announce the appointment of Charles Jackson as a new
member of the Executive Committee in charge of North America and
Global Strategy & Business Development.
SES is focused on strengthening its position in the electronic shelf

new innovations that are relevant to the North American retail
market.

Jackson will be responsible for identifying and leading strategic
business alliances and development opportunities including
acquisitions.
"I am delighted to welcome Charles and his deep retail industry
expertise. He is a recognized executive with more than 25 years of
international experience within the retail and telecom industry, and
