About
Mark Wilkins is an accomplished entrepreneur and technology industry expert with over three decades of experience in value-added distribution. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated a proven ability to build sustainable, revenue-generating sales channels for a wide range of technology products, ensuring long-term success for commercial integrators. As the founder, owner, and CEO of Stampede, Mark established the company as the leading specialist in the value-added distribution of technology products across North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. Under his leadership, Stampede became the go-to distributor for high-demand categories, including large-screen displays, projection equipment, unified communications, digital signage, drone video systems, and hospitality technology. Mark's visionary leadership culminated in the successful acquisition of Stampede by the technology division of DCC PLC in 2018. This strategic move, which took place under his stewardship, positioned Stampede as a global leader in the value-added technology distribution space, enhancing its growth potential and market presence. DCC plc is a globally recognized group, with a revenue of £14.3 billion, marking a significant milestone in Mark's illustrious career. After 35 years in the ProAV industry, Mark transitioned into retirement following the completion of Stampede's acquisition. However, his commitment to fostering growth and driving innovation continues to shape his post-retirement endeavors. A passionate environmentalist, Mark founded the Nature Trust of the Americas (NTOTA.org), a family foundation dedicated to the preservation of natural resources. He is deeply committed to sustainability and the protection of the planet, leveraging his entrepreneurial success to make a meaningful impact on environmental conservation. In addition to his entrepreneurial achievements, Mark serves on the boards of several nonprofit and profit organizations, where he actively contributes to their strategic direction and success. With his vast network and industry expertise, he plays a key role in shaping the future of these organizations, providing valuable insights and fostering lasting partnerships. Mark Wilkins' career exemplifies a relentless pursuit of growth, a keen eye for strategic opportunities, and a dedication to making a lasting, positive impact both in business and the environment.
