technologies, including voice, data and video communications
products, entered into a definitive agreement on November 3, 2009,
to purchase substantially all the assets of Algol Europe, a

industry’s leading communications solutions wrapped with the
value-added services they need to grow their business,” said Xavier
Cartiaux, president, ScanSource Europe. “I’m looking forward to
working with the Algol management team, including Marianne and

resources to expand the market for communications solutions.”

of the reseller is clear through their outstanding execution in
both the United States and Europe,” said Marianne Nickenig,
