20 October 2003

Finland - Audace Ltd, the UK-based manufacturer of the Intelliplate programmable control system for audio-visual installations, has appointed Starlike Oy Ltd of Vantaa, Finland to distribute its products exclusively in Finland. The deal was brokered by Audace's global distribution partner Comsec International. The deal was confirmed at PLASA 2003 recently, where managing director of Audace, Bryan Waters met with Jari Ukkonen from Starlike.

Bryan Waters commented on the appointment: "Starlike is a welcome and highly appropriate addition to our growing portfolio of high-quality distribution partners. We have been in discussion with them for several months now and with the advent of SuperHub and other plans we have for the development of the line, both parties felt that the time had come to solidify the relationship. Starlike brings a broad range of expertise and an excellent network of clients to the table. We are confident that this is the beginning of a mutually-beneficial relationship and we look forward to working with Starlike and their clients over the years ahead."

Starlike is also the Finnish distributor for Biamp, Australian Monitor, L-Acoustics and a wide range of other pro audio, visual and lighting manufacturers. Intelliplate is a programmable control system for audio, video, lighting and other systems.
