BAI Communications, which will officially operate in the Northern Hemisphere as Boldyn Networks by this summer, today named Christos Karmis as the CEO of its US business unit effective July 1st 2023. Christos currently serves as President & CEO of Mobilitie, one of BAI’s group companies.
In the US, BAI is in the process of integrating its four portfolio companies Mobilitie, Signal Point Systems, Transit Wireless and ZenFi Networks into one business entity that will drive its ambitious growth plans in the country. By the end of June, BAI will rebrand globally as Boldyn Networks.
Christos Karmis has been instrumental in expanding Mobilitie’s business nationwide. Under his leadership, the portfolio of solutions for large venues and enterprises has grown exponentially and allows the company to address any complex infrastructure project where the goal is reliable and future-proof connectivity. Christos has overseen the growth of the business across all industry verticals as well as the launch of the company’s private network solutions. He was responsible for the strategic acquisition of Signal Point Systems last year, which provides best-in-class wireless and wired broadband connectivity to military personnel and their families.
As part of the new US team structure, Ray LaChance, Co-Founder and CEO of ZenFi will take a role of Senior Advisor to Boldyn Networks in the US, with a focus on realizing our connectivity vision for the NY Metro area and beyond, and Melinda White will depart from her role as CEO of Transit Wireless in the second half of 2023.

Our employees and clients are excited about the benefits of being part of a larger global enterprise that is also an innovative and dynamic leader in the industry.

I firmly believe that the integrated US organization will be in extremely capable hands.
