Today, Harmonic announced several changes to its sales management organization, including the addition of Ian Graham as vice president of sales and support for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
Glen Sakata, who led the EMEA reorganization over the past two years, has been named vice president of sales for the Americas. Sakata’s responsibilities include North American broadcast, satellite and telco sales, as well as sales across all markets in Latin America.
In addition, Jim Marino was recently promoted to vice president of sales for North American cable, and Raymond Tse’s responsibilities as vice president of sales for Asia Pacific were expanded to include China.

Graham joined Harmonic from Motorola’s Home & Networks Mobility division, where he held senior positions in sales management, including vice president of Motorola Sales and Services Inc. for the EMEA region.
Sakata has 20 years of advanced video processing and control system sales, marketing, and business development experience, and Sakata originally joined Harmonic in 2001. Marino and Tse have been part of Harmonic’s sales management team for several years, joining the company in 2001 and 2000, respectively.
