[UKPRwire, Tue Jun 30 2009] Point 35 Microstructures is using the SEMICON West show as the launch pad for a sales push in North America. The Company today announced that it is stepping up support for its memsstar® process equipment in North America with the appointment of Harold Sender as the new director of sales for the region.

Commenting, sales director Tony McKie said, “North America is an important area for new MEMS research, development and fabrication and therefore vital to the growth of the memsstar® brand. Harold brings a distinguished history of successful sales development to the role and I am looking forward to working with him to create a structure for developing sales and customer service support in the North American market.”

Sender joins Point 35 from Lam Research where he had held the position of senior director for the previous six years. Prior to this he held a variety of senior sales and account management roles within electronics and capital equipment companies in the U.S.

Harold Sender commented, “New applications for MEMS devices are continually being developed and having flexible equipment on which they can be fabricated is central to their future success. The memsstar® range of process systems is world leading and I am excited at the prospect of developing the market for it within the U.S.”
