ROSH HAAYIN, ISRAEL—October 9, 2013—Scodix Inc. today announced that it has grown its executive team by adding two seasoned professionals, as well as elevating Marketing Vice President Ziki Kuly to the new position of vice president of customer business development.

Ziki Kuly
Since joining Scodix in 2009, Ziki Kuly has worked to position the company as not only the undisputed leader in the new digital enhancement category, but to elevate the category itself to prominence.

In his new position and challenge, Kuly will focus upon assisting and training Scodix customers worldwide to increase print output. By sharing tried-and-true applications and marketing successes, the company aims to further increase the value of Scodix solutions and differentiating impact in each user’s market.
Amit Shvartz
Amit joins Scodix with over 18 years of experience in executive marketing management. In his previous position, Amit was the vice president of marketing of Extricom, a privately held firm specializing in enterprise wireless LAN. He draws upon a successful international B2B and B2C sales and marketing career with a proven track record in distribution, strategic business development, products planning, marketing, and branding. Prior to Extricom, Shvartz was vice president of marketing at Objet Geometrics (2005-2010), and held executive-level positions over a 10-year period beginning in 1995 with industry trailblazers Scitex and Creo.

Dennis, who will now manage all sales responsibilities for the Western United States and Western Provinces of Canada, was previously account manager at Domino Amjet, Western Region. He had marketed inkjet systems to the tag & label market, as well as commercial printers. Prior to Domino Amjet, he held positions of increasing responsibility at both Creo and Kodak over a 16-year period.

This together with the Scodix operation center in Chicago and the creation of Scodix will enable full local support for our rapidly growing North American customers and prospect base.
