CHRIS BURSEY

FOUNDER & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Chris is a pioneer in the wireless communication industry with over 20 years dedicated to the adoption of wireless technologies throughout all industries ranging from cellular payment processing to the creation of cellular routers and GPS monitoring devices.

Chris grew his passion for wireless communications while serving as an air traffic controller in the US Navy onboard the USS Midway and USS Kitty Hawk. After proudly serving his country, he took his experience and began to carve out a future in cellular communications with sales, business development and channel development roles at Novatel Wireless, Motorola (now Telit), Wavecom and CalAmp Wireless Networks. Prior to DCS, Chris was instrumental in developing NexAria’s wireless strategy positioning NexAira as the premier device manufacturer for rural cellular networks and Mobile Virtual Network Operators in North America.

Chris is dedicated to removing the complexities from IoT solutions, building a company whose focus is on deploying end-to-end solutions, while reducing the number of companies it takes to create them. His intuition and industry experience have evolved DCS from a cellular modem distribution company into a solutions integrator which cellular networks lean on for its business solutions.

Chris spends most weekends at the sports park with his four children. When he has time, you may catch him on a golf course or doing R&D for BrewSee.
