Kapsch TrafficCom Appoints Ramón Martinez as the New Vice President for Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean

MEXICO CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kapsch TrafficCom announces the recent appointment of Ramon Martinez as new Vice President for Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.

Ramon Martinez is looking back on a long career of nearly 30 years in the technology and telecommunications industries, with global companies such as GE, Microsoft, IBM, Motorola and SAP, among others, in regional leadership roles in both North and South America.

"I am pleased to announce Ramon Martinez as the Vice President for our northern sub-region of Latin America, which contains Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean", says Emilio Rivas, Kapsch's Executive Vice President for Latin America. "With his experience, we are confident that he will be able to successfully project the company into the future in this region.”

Martinez succeeds Juan Zamakona who is leaving Latin America to join the Kapsch team in Europe. Since Kapsch came to Mexico with the acquisition of Simex, Zamakona has managed the transition, positioning Kapsch as a leading provider of toll, electronic toll and mobility technology in this region. "I would like to thank Juan for his great commitment during his assignment in the region over the years and wish him success in his new role and professional challenge", says Rivas.

Kapsch has great expectations for growth in the region, both in the toll sector and in urban mobility. Its advanced SmartToll tolling system has been successfully implemented in recent projects in both Mexico and Costa Rica, and the intention is to have the opportunity to upgrade all legacy systems installed or operated by Kapsch in the region to SmartToll. Ramon Martinez expresses his enthusiasm and indicates that he will have a strong focus on customer satisfaction: "I am very excited about this new challenge, as this is a company whose innovative technologies can effectively meet the needs of our cities and highways to provide a better experience for citizens. My goal is to follow up on Kapsch's success in my sub-region, always keeping the customer at the centre so that we can be their best partners in tolling and mobility management.”
