Romania - Paradigma Group hosted the official opening of its brand new headquarters on 8 March, based in Bucharest, as the final part of a special Romanian-Dutch joint venture in the entertainment technology market. His Excellency Dhr. J. Werner, Dutch Ambassador to Romania, was guest of honour at the opening ceremony.

The purpose built 3,500sq.m headquarters, just a few miles from Bucharest's Otopeni International Airport, is divided into offices and warehouses. The space enables Paradigma Group to maintain large rental stocks of audio, lighting, video and staging equipment, to provide professional servicing and training facilities, as well as housing the group's sales company including a showroom and maintenance department.

Paradigma Group is a joint venture between Ampco Flashlight Holding BV of Holland and AEI Broadcast Concept, one of the leading facilities companies in Romania, which was announced in April 2006 at the ProLight&Sound Show in Frankfurt.

"This great project brings together the expertise and resources of two organisations to create an exciting and dynamic operation that offers outstanding and professional services and the latest entertainment technology to the fast expanding Romanian entertainment industry," says Cristian Singer, general manager of Paradigma Production.

Fred Heuves, executive director of the Paradigma Group and representing Ampco Flashlight Holding adds: "It's exciting to see that the opening of these new premises reflects the strength of the group after working together in Romania for such a short time. The incredibly hard work of our local partners here in Romania has made the real difference."
