POLAR's Integrated Solutions Team Grows With Duncan Peberdy's Arrival!

We are thrilled to announce Duncan Peberdy as the newest addition to our team at Polar. With a comprehensive background in both IT and AV, acquired through invaluable experiences with resellers, distributors, and manufacturers, Duncan has been at the forefront of helping organizations embark on digital transformations to embrace new ways of working and learning, reaping the benefits these advancements can bring.

In 2015, Duncan showcased his flair for innovation by conceiving the ground-breaking Sticky Campus Roadshow, a project that evolved into a Jisc initiative in 2018. As the Senior Lead for Digital Learning Spaces at Jisc, he spearheaded a pioneering pop-up classroom, artfully integrating AV, IT, furniture, and pedagogy to create a dynamic environment for successful small group active collaborative learning on university campuses across the UK.

When the challenges of the Covid era emerged, Duncan fearlessly tackled them head-on by collaborating closely with Intel and its technology partners. Together, they worked on innovating hybrid learning, and working solutions addressing the demands of remote working, and learning with ingenuity and resilience.

Having joined T1V, Inc. in early 2022 as their Territory Manager for Europe, Duncan forged a close partnership with Polar, the UK's exclusive distributor for ThinkHub and T1V Story. Now, with his transition to Polar, Duncan's expertise will augment Polar Integrated Solutions, seamlessly complementing ThinkHub as essential elements of immersive spaces. These spaces, designed for innovation, briefings, visitor centres, and more, will play a crucial role in the latest digital transformations that companies and campuses must embrace to remain relevant to their customers, students, and colleagues.

Will Turney comments “We are delighted to have Duncan join Polar. Duncan brings a wealth of knowledge and experience of the industry to our company. I am confident Duncan will be an excellent addition to the growing integrated solutions team, as we supply and service an always expanding and changing market.”

Managing Director John Midgley adds “I am really pleased that Duncan is joining the Polar team, I know that his experience and personality will strengthen the team in many important areas. His broad knowledge of the changing face or ProAV is just what we need in this period when our brand portfolio is introducing new and exciting UC solutions.”

Please join us in welcoming Duncan Peberdy to Polar. We are excited to have him on board and are confident that his expertise and vision will contribute significantly to our mission of driving digital transformations and delivering innovative learning solutions to our valued clients.
