February 6, 2024 | CONFIDEEEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Due to a substantial surge in demand across Asia, the Confidee Sales Team has undergone expansion, now including a dedicated Sales Manager for the Asia region, Tony Mok.
"We are excited to welcome Tony on board. His extensive and longstanding expertise in PCB manufacturing aligns seamlessly with our commitment to becoming a preferred PCB partner, fostering both experience and robust relationships with our trusted suppliers", says CEO Vidar Olsen.
Confidee, who lately has experienced a substantial surge in demand across Asia, has strategically increased its team by appointing a Sales Manager with local presence. His experience and proactive engagement make him ideal at identifying growth opportunities and crafting tailored strategies to capture new markets.
“With Tony onboard, we are exceptionally well-positioned to support our partners. In an era where industry experience is increasingly scarce, it's noteworthy that all our sales Managers bring valuable insights, stemming from their backgrounds of managing PCB factories or working within manufacturing. In this regard, Tony seamlessly aligns with our team's expertise”, says Olsen.
Mok assumed the role of Sales Manager on February 1st, seamlessly integrating into the organization with remarkable efficiency. He will be an asset to current partners overseas and play a pivotal role in expanding the customer base in the Asian market.
“I strongly believe Confidee will be a great place to work, as I have known these people for a long time, and just love the culture, attitude and work atmosphere they commit to and generate. For me it's important to work in an environment where trust and respect, in relation to how we do business and treat people, is a priority,” says Mok.

11/03/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseI’ve lost count of the times I’ve heard someone dismiss marketing as “fluff.” You know the tone: a little smirk, a little condescension, and the implication that “real companies” don’t need marketing. They say, “We make a great product. Our work speaks for itself.”

People file away facts while they feel stories. Facts tickle the brain, but stories punch the heart, and it’s the heart that signs the check every time.
