VANCOUVER, CANADA, June 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - Avigilon Corporation, a Motorola Solutions company, is pleased to announce that James Henderson, Avigilon's President and Chief Operating Officer, has been selected as a recipient of Canada's Top 40 Under 40® Award for 2018.
Considered the country's most coveted award for young business leaders, Canada's Top 40 Under 40™ annually recognizes the exceptional achievements of 40 outstanding Canadian leaders and innovators under the age of 40 who are making significant impacts on their organizations and in their communities.
James was selected from over 800 nominees by an independent, cross-national Advisory Board, based on four key criteria: Vision & Innovation; Leadership; Impact & Influence; and Social Responsibility.

Under his leadership, Avigilon has expanded its market presence, brand awareness, and corporate profile, to become a globally recognized leader in the security industry.
