NEW YORK - PennZone -- On the heels of announcing $7 million in Series A funding, bringing its capital raise to $13 million, REACH, the developer of a leading virtual workplace platform built for real-time customer transactions, continues to build market momentum with the appointment of two experienced leaders to its executive team. Tom Hipp has joined REACH as Senior Vice President, Global Sales & Operations, and Susan Beyer as Senior Vice President, Global Marketing. In these roles, Hipp and Beyer will focus on growing the company's presence in the U.S. and internationally.

"Tom and Susan are the right leaders to help us meet this demand and take REACH to the next level of growth across the globe. I'm thrilled to welcome them to our team."
