Scott, a US Air Force veteran, has held several high-profile senior sales management roles at leading technology organizations during his career, including Philips, having originally joined the company back in 1995, spending 15-years as a Regional Sales Manager.

Scott hailed the new Philips MediaSuite pro TV range as an “unparalleled game changer” for the hospitality industry. This new offering, alongside PPDS’ ambitions and devotion to customer service, was a key factor in his return to the Philips brand.

He also becomes a crucial member of PPDS’s newly assembled ‘International Key Account Management’ (IKAM) team and strategy – a program created to provide a single point-of-contact to seamlessly support customers in executing their projects, whether on a national or international scale across multiple locations. Heading up the newly created International Key Account Management team, Scott is responsible for international projects/installations covering digital signage (including LED) and professional TV solutions in retail, corporate, hospitality, house of worship, broadcast, food and beverage, healthcare, entertainment, aviation (including airports), and controls rooms (including security), among others.

“With my new role at PPDS, I’ve come full circle in my career and am thrilled to be part of this team to use my knowledge and experience to help the company achieve its ambitions,” commented Adams.

“The hospitality market presents clear and significant opportunities for PPDS, and with the arrival of Philips MediaSuite, coupled with our growing list of third-party partnerships, including Google™ and Netflix™, I believe there will not be a stronger solution and package available anywhere in the current market. The MediaSuite product checks every box for both quality and functionality to customers and end-users. The reaction has been incredible.”
