The division will incorporate the Group's international broadcast and audio-visual activities, including Charter Broadcast, Cinevideo, ABS and Blitz Communications, all of whom will continue to trade under their own names. David Carr continues as managing director of the broadcast businesses, whilst Paul Hutton, a director of Blitz Vision since 1993, will become the managing director of Blitz. The new division will be headed up by Evenser main board director Michael Breen.
Michael Breen comments: "This is a great opportunity for both the audio-visual and broadcast businesses. I'm very excited to be spearheading the development of these two areas." Barry Day, chief executive of Evenser Group, added: "The creation of this new division reflects the Group's desire to see sustained organic and acquisitive growth from our broadcast and audio-visual businesses. The simplified divisional structure and combined management team will enable us to maximise the opportunities available to these businesses."
