IRVINE, Calif. (Dec. 2, 2014) —Toshiba America Business Solutions, Inc. today announces the promotion of content management industry veteran Tom Walter to the position of vice president of distribution and aftermarket sales.
The 25-year sales and marketing executive will expand his current responsibility of managing the day-to-day operations of the company’s aftermarket products.
