Nermeen Iskander, marketing director of Audio Technology, said: “We have always been aware of Powersoft’s reputation, including in rental staging, and kept being impressed by the products’ exceptional performance, reliability, and ease of use.”
Audio Technology will focus on expanding Powersoft’s footprint in installations, live productions and hospitality projects. It will also offer training programmes, product demonstrations and technical seminars to educate integrators and rental companies on Powersoft solutions.
Iskander added: “We look forward to bringing Powersoft’s solutions to the stadia, hospitality and rental sectors, as their advanced technology product stability makes Powersoft the perfect fit for these markets.”
With Egypt’s economy stabilising and the recent Ras El Hekma megaproject development that is backed by Abu Dhabi investment and expected to become a major tourism and economic hub, Iskander sees this as a significant growth opportunity for professional AV solutions. “The market is growing and there is a huge demand for strong distributors and integrators to be able to execute large-scale projects and events. Partnering with Powersoft allows us to adapt to these trends and expand our market share while maintaining the highest level of excellence to meet all clients’ needs,” he commented.
Varun Jagger, EMEIA sales manager, Powersoft, said: “We are pleased to extend a warm welcome to Audio Technology. The team’s expertise and market knowledge make them the ideal partner to expand our presence in Egypt. With the country’s pro AV sector growing, we are confident that Audio Technology will help us deliver the best solutions to system integrators, rental companies, and end-users.”
