MELVILLE, N.Y. — Nov. 15, 2017 — ChyronHego today announced the appointment of Boromy Ung as chief product officer, reporting to President and CEO Johan Apel. As leader of ChyronHego's global product management division, Ung has taken charge of the vision and roadmap for the company's award-winning family of solutions for live television, news, and sports production.
"These are exciting times at ChyronHego. Our vision of the CAMIO Universe as a comprehensive, software-based production ecosystem is taking hold in TV newsrooms everywhere, and momentum is continuing to build worldwide for our sports broadcast solutions, such as the Emmy Award-winning TRACAB," Apel said.

He's exactly the seasoned professional we need to move our product strategy forward into our company's next growth phase."
