Prior to joining the IP Telesis team, Guenther was the director of channel sales for LignUp, a VoIP softswitch company. As a founding member of LignUp, Guenther was instrumental in creating valuable partnerships with many traditional telcos and ISPs looking to migrate their networks over to VoIP. Prior to LignUp, Guenther served as vice president of international sales and business development at FatPipe Networks, where he led the effort to create an international channel of distribution and reseller partners. Guenther also held executive positions at MicroMuse, Northrup-Grumman and GE Capital IT Consulting.
