Mares joins Aonix after successful tenure at Thales Computers
San Diego, CA, May 20, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Aonix®, a provider of solutions for mission-critical applications development, is pleased to announce the selection of Laurent Mares as Vice President of Sales for European Operations. Mares is directly tasked with maximizing Aonix’s rapid growth across Europe.
Mares brings to Aonix an intimate knowledge of the embedded technology markets with over 15 years of international sales management expertise. Mares joins Aonix following a successful track record with Thales Computers, where he directed sales for Europe and Asia.

As more industries seek Java technologies for critical systems, Aonix’ PERC product line revenues have doubled each year for the past three years.
“We are very pleased to welcome Laurent to the Aonix leadership team,” said Pierre Cesarini, CEO of Aonix. “Europe is a critical market for Aonix. With Laurent’s strong relationships and extensive experience in the mission-critical space, we look forward to significantly extending our Europe position across all sectors, including military and aerospace industries, transportation, avionics, telecom, industrial control, and network infrastructure applications, where complex, critical requirements are prevalent.”
“I have been attracted by Aonix's growth plan in the real-time Java and Ada solutions market and by the high value and expertise of its people worldwide,” noted Mares. “Increasing Aonix’ penetration into these markets offers an exciting professional challenge. I look forward to working with Aonix’ European team.”
