TORONTO — As part of its global expansion plans, Nextologies Limited announced it has hired Fernando Aunon (pictured) as regional vice-president of its US operations.
Based out of Lewes, Delaware, Aunon brings more than 30 years of sales and business development experience from a wide variety of media and entertainment companies, Nextologies said in a news release.
Aunon was previously regional vice-president of sales for LTN Global Communications, where he spent the last six years successfully handling LTN’s US broadcast station groups and government entities, Nextologies said.

Nextologies CEO Sasha Zivanovic was quoted as saying: “We are seeing tremendous demand for Nextologies’ services in the USA. We are thrilled to have Fernando join our team to assist with this growth. His broadcasting relationships and background in foreign and domestic distribution and contribution markets will be a tremendous asset moving forward.”
