Virtalis, the Manchester-based advanced visualisation company, has appointed Tom O'Brien as its new Non Executive Director.

With an impressive career encompassing the Army and partnerships at Deloitte and Touche, Arthur Andersen, Accenture (formerly Andersen Consulting) and Cap Gemini, O'Brien now offers consultancy to high-tech businesses all over the North West.

O'Brien commented: "I will offer Virtalis an outside perspective".

"People still don't understand how visualisation can help them".

"I hope that my ideas will help them create a market where none currently exists".

"For instance, their StereoWorks technology could deliver benefits in completely new areas, like fashion or construction".

"It isn't just about new markets, I'll be looking at the complete business cycle and how they service and deliver to existing customers and markets".

Virtalis MD, David Cockburn-Price, explained: "We welcome Tom at a time when we are busy developing plans to bring our technology to new sectors and educate people about its numerous uses".

"We also have several new products in development".

"Tom's exceptional experience will help us to target new customers whilst helping us to keep pace with a rapid growth rate".
