Visual Data Expands Internationally to Singapore and Elevates Simon Constable to COO

Last Updated on: 19th June 2024, 06:20 am

Visual Data, a leading provider of comprehensive media supply chain services, headquartered in Burbank and London, announces its expansion into the Asia-Pacific region with the establishment of a new hub in Singapore. This strategic location enables the company to cater to the extensive and diverse Asian market while reinforcing its commitment to bridging the gap between quality and global service at scale. Simultaneously, industry expert Simon Constable has been promoted to the role of Chief Operating Officer (COO) and will continue to report to John Trautman, CEO of Visual Data.

This announcement marks a significant milestone in the company’s global strategy, following the acquisition of EVA Localization in France, Germany, and Spain last year. Visual Data has experienced steady growth since its founding in 1995, with increased momentum in global service expansion after partnering with Endeavour Capital in 2020. The decision to establish a presence in Singapore responds to the rising content production for streaming in Asia, generating a greater demand for international production expertise and support across diverse regions and time zones. By adding Singapore to its network of global facilities, Visual Data further enhances its ability to offer fully integrated global services with local expertise.

“We recognise the importance of being close to our customers wherever they are, and providing specialised services tailored to their needs when they need them,” said John Trautman, CEO of Visual Data. “With our new location in Singapore, we provide local expert talent for productions across Asia, while giving our global clients access to services across any time zone.”

Trautman continues, “As we navigate this next phase of our global strategy, I’m thrilled to promote Simon Constable as COO to oversee our global operations. We share a clear vision, and I’m confident that with his stewardship we will continue to grow our end-to-end services on a global scale.”

With over 25 years of experience, Simon Constable brings a rich and diverse background covering nearly every aspect of the digital media supply chain and content localisation. As Executive Vice President, Global Language Services, Constable has driven Visual Data’s worldwide access and localisation business forward, advancing dubbing, subtitling, captioning, audio description, and metadata for international distribution. In his new role as COO, Constable will lead global operations across media services, language services, and localisation, focusing on strategic growth, process automation, and innovation throughout the media supply chain.

“I am honoured to take on this new role as we further advance our follow-the-sun strategy,” said Constable. “Our presence in Singapore marks another exciting step in our mission to provide a robust and relevant integrated global infrastructure, and I look forward to leveraging that momentum as we continue to deliver even greater depth and breadth of end-to-end digital media and localisation services in key territories.”
