Our existing and future AMER partners can look forward to an outstanding expert – and a great guy who I have known and appreciated for years.”
As a market-oriented expert in information management, Appelbaum has already increased sales, efficiency and customer growth for various international scanner manufacturers and software companies. With sales and business development for InoTec SCAMAX® in the Americas region, he is now assuming responsibility in one of DATAWIN‘s most important markets. In addition to AMER partner management, Robert will also focus on expanding the end-user business.

“The InoTec SCAMAX® document scanners lead the premium class in their segments. For me, they are without a doubt the world‘s best document scanners, and with their FADGI compliance, they are absolutely made for the US capture market, which is facing increasingly strict regulations on image quality. It is a privilege to represent such a high quality product in the right place at the right time. I am eager to take on this task and look forward to working with the DATAWIN team.“
Appelbaum will operate from Atlanta, Georgia. The first opportunity for a personal exchange with Robert will be at the AI+IM Global Summit 2025 from March 31 to April 2, in the Hyatt Regency Atlanta.
