According to the Rochest Busines Journal, social marketing company Brand Networks has expanded its company to Los Angeles and New York. The company has appointed Paul Falzone as its chief growth officer to head its LA branch.

When reached for comment, Brand Networks CEO Jamie Tedford said the company hopes that the new LA offices will serve as a West Coast hub for the company. With their main focus on the company’s expansion, he says that Falzone has skills that are perfect to head the company’s West Coast efforts.

“[Falzone’s] knowledge of the entertainment industry are unmatched and that’s something we need in LA where serving the entertainment industry is a big resource,” Tedford said. “His tenure at SDI is also impressive. [SDI] is a leader in translation and localization, and there one of his priorities was to grow the business internationally. His knowledge of globalization,[his] successful track record, and operational experience are what will help us grow.”

Falzone is the former president of SDI media, a California-based subtitling and translation provider for the entertainment industry. His new role will be to oversee services offered to Brand Networks’ clients and partners in Hollywood and Silicon Valley, and lead Brand Networks’ global expansion.
