“I’m thrilled to be joining Vermont Systems. I’m energized by the culture and commitment of this team,” said Scott Strong. “The parks and recreation market is eager to drive engagement and enhanced experiences with the communities they serve. There is so much potential that Vermont Systems is ready to unlock. This will certainly be an exciting time to accelerate growth and innovation, and with Giles Willey serving as Vice President of Strategic Accounts, we have the passion and expertise to really build on the successes of our customers.”
