PARAMUS, N.J., Feb. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The CSI Group is pleased to announce the promotion of VP/Executive Producer Rich Cannava to the position of President & Partner.

His client-first attitude, and business acumen are things I will keep close to my heart as we move the company forward," said Cannava. "New technologies and platforms are becoming more readily available and evolving the marketing and advertising industries as a whole. It's my job to embrace these realities and integrate them into our thinking and production – continuing to deliver top-notch work with a focus on results and customer service."
Over the last 4 years as VP/Executive Producer, Cannava has helped fuel the agency's growth by building and solidifying relationships with the agency's most high-profile clients in a variety of industries and projects including video, traditional marketing, digital signage and immersive digital experiences. In his new role as President, Cannava will continue to help guide the agency's creative and work directly with clients, while running the company's daily operations and streamlining an inspired and cutting-edge direction for the future of The CSI Group.
"The way in which CSI has progressed over the years, it's a natural fit to have one of our creatives running the show.
