AIDC Veteran Rudie Lion Joins VDC
VDC is proud to announce that Rudie Lion, an experienced consultant in identification and transaction processing, has joined VDC's AIDC division as a Senior Analyst and Program Manager. He will be responsible for AIDC syndicated and consulting programs.
Rudie will be working alongside Drew Nathanson, AIDC Practice Director. "Rudie's hands-on and consulting experience with AIDC vendors and channels, as well as his diverse industry knowledge is a true complement to the AIDC team, and will strengthen our ability to provide clients with balanced and accurate analyses," said Nathanson.
Prior to joining VDC, Rudie was a consultant covering a wide range of products and issues related to personal identification and 'security printing,' including electronic passports and biometrics. Before running his own consulting firm, he held a product management position at Imaging Automation (now Viisage), and began his career at Getronics (a major European systems integrator), where he managed the launch and implementation of transaction processing terminals.
"While Rudie's credentials fit perfectly with the type of research and analysis VDC provides, I am particularly excited about his potential of adding new services that will benefit our clients," stated Chris Rezendes, Vice President of VDC.
Rudie holds an MBA from Babson College (MA) and is an experienced author and guest speaker on AIDC and security solutions.
