Klipsch vice president and general manager of sales and marketing for Asia Pacific, Australia and New Zealand, Vince Bonacorsi will take on an additional newly created role as vice president of the lifestyle audio division, comprising headphones, Bluetooth speakers and gaming audio solutions.
Bonacorsi will be responsible for the strategic direction, design and technological innovation of the product portfolio, as well as marketing and brand collaborations. In 2019, he led the development of a multi-year partnership between Klipsch and McLaren Racing with the release of premium headphones and portable audio products.
He joined Klipsch in 2006 and has held various roles in finance, sales and management. He was awarded Klipsch Manager of the Year in 2019 and earned a spot on Dealerscope’s coveted “40 under 40” list in 2020.
Commenting on his new role, Bonacorsi said: “The lifestyle audio division is the culmination of many people, cultures and behaviours I have been fortunate enough to experience throughout my time at Klipsch. I am excited to build upon our 75-year history by leading the evolution of the brand with innovative products that allow people to discover their music and content in new ways.”
Premium Audio Company president and CEO, Paul Jacobs said Vince’s ever-progressive view of business has helped shape much of the company’s global strategy.
“His MBA in finance started his career at Klipsch but his mastery of distribution, product form and function and people’s emotional connection has propelled his advancement in our organisation. Vince is an essential part of our future.”
