dreamGEAR announces the addition of video game industry veteran Chris Berthelot to its ranks as Vice President of Licensing and Business Development. Recently distinguished as one of Entrepreneur magazine’s 2007 “Hot 500” fastest growing companies, dreamGEAR is a leader in providing a wide range of high-quality and cutting-edge video game and iPod/MP3 accessories.

Berthelot joins dreamGEAR directly from Toys’R’Us, where he has served as the Director of Merchandising for their video games division. At Toys’R’Us Berthelot played an integral role in revitalizing the company’s product assortment, introducing a successful line of private label accessories. He brings this extensive knowledge of the video gaming industry to help fuel dreamGEAR’s continued success as a leader in the consumer electronics industry. Berthelot was also instrumental in making Toys’R’Us the premier retailer for the Nintendo Wii during the 2006 holiday season, which will serve to invigorate dreamGEAR’s line of Wii accessories.

“The consumer electronics industry expands so quickly that it opens up a wide variety of opportunities for us to experience dynamic growth,” says Richard Weston, dreamGEAR co-founder. “Having Chris on board, with his proven record of accomplishments and extensive knowledge of the video gaming sector, substantially strengthens our position as an industry leader and will help us continue to grow our market share.”
