Avanti Communications strengthens senior team in Africa with the appointment of a new Sales Director


Avanti Communications announced the appointment of Chris van Rooyen as its new Sales Director.


The industry veteran will support the company’s growing footprint in South Africa by combining his in-depth market understanding with Avanti’s vision for South African telco convergence.


Chris will support the company’s mission to provide accessible and affordable connectivity and will spearhead the growth of Avanti’s enterprise sales and services in the region, in addition to driving new business development.


Avanti opened its first African office in South Africa in 2018 and is now focussed on creating more local employment opportunities across the country.


Gamze Aydin, Senior Vice President of Sales and South Africa Country Manager, said: “Chris's appointment marks a significant milestone for Avanti as we sharpen our focus on South Africa. His deep understanding of the evolving telecom landscape, evident in his vision for a convergence of telco service offerings, and his track record in the enterprise sphere, make him the ideal leader to take our services to the next level."


Prior to joining Avanti, Chris held a decade-long role at Liquid Intelligent Technologies.
