Welcoming Jay Leedy: Driving Strategic Alliances at Videri.

We’re excited to announce the latest addition to our leadership team at Videri as we welcome Jay Leedy as Senior Vice President, Strategic Alliances. Jay brings with him a wealth of experience and a passion for driving growth through strategic partnerships.

Jay’s career is marked by an ability to forge meaningful partnerships that drive results. His most recent role at Sony Electronics saw him leading the product planning organization, where he was instrumental in identifying and onboarding strategic partners to drive global market growth in professional display sales.

But Jay’s journey didn’t begin in the tech sector. After graduating from the University of Georgia, he delved into the world of retail operations, directing merchandising execution and store planning initiatives for renowned companies such as Macy’s, IKEA, and The Home Depot. Through his background in developing point-of-purchase merchandising displays, Jay built numerous solutions focused on meeting branding, experiential and operational needs for retailers through connected digital experiences.

Leveraging this experience, Jay transitioned into driving client acquisition for leading organizations like Diversified and Convergent Media Systems focusing on digital signage network operations, content management and production services, IPTV platforms, and remote device monitoring & management solutions.

“With Jay’s strategic mindset and passion for collaboration at global scale, he will play a pivotal role in driving our growth and expanding our global footprint through strategic alliances,” said Stephen Jenkins, CRO at Videri. “Jay’s approach to driving top of funnel growth will continue to be partner-centric and laser focused on building strategic alliances that broaden compatibility and elevate the value-proposition of Videri’s range of products.”

Join us in welcoming Jay to the Videri family and stay tuned for the exciting collaborations and partnerships that lie ahead!

Edge-Lit TVs are on the hot seat. How does Videri keep its cool?

In a recent study by RTING, edge-lit TVs were identified as prone to significant durability issues due to concentrated heat which caused “uniformity problems” such as warped reflector sheets, cracked light guide plates, and burnt-out LEDs. The study concluded that these TVs posed a significant risk to long-term reliability. When it comes to thin digital displays, heat dissipation is paramount to the longevity of the product.
