Singapore - Leading hospitality mobile technology platform provider, FCS, has appointed Theo Laborey to head up the company's sales office in Bangkok, Thailand.

"We are very pleased to welcome Theo to our sales team in Asia. He brings a wealth of experience in hotel operations and guest services management to FCS and has an innate understanding of our client's needs," said Pascale S. Chatelain, Vice-President Global Sales, Marketing and Channels for FCS. "Our strategy is to have hoteliers as part of our business development teams across all of our 13 sales offices globally and we wish Theo the best of luck in his new role."
