Dutch superyacht entertainment technology specialist VBH has become a partner in the new marine division of Crestron. The companies will leverage on two decades of working together to further enhance their services to clients around the world.
VBH has been implementing Crestron systems on superyachts since the start of the millennium, recognising the first-class quality of the company’s technologies. Having signed a framework agreement with the EMEA division of Crestron in 2018, VBH is now an official partner in Creston’s marine division.
“This new development will enable VBH and Crestron to strengthen our yacht support around the globe and share knowledge in a very demanding market,” explains Jeroen van den Hurk, CEO of VBH. “We both strive to be at the forefront of onboard technology by constantly improving our products and services. This partnership in the marine division will also enable us to offer smart solutions that address the needs of our customers.”
Crestron has announced the appointment of industry veteran Daniel Kerkhof to lead the new marine division. He will spearhead business development and the brand-new Crestron Marine Programme, which offers shipbuilders, superyacht specifiers, and ETOs (electro-technical officers) an unprecedented level of support. Kerkhof has been involved in several VBH projects over recent years and is looking forward to working with the company on all kinds of new endeavours in the future.
