A number of successful projects and an expanding market have encouraged AV and multi media specialist, D J Willrich Ltd (DJW) to open their new office in Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. Located approximately 15 miles out of Dubai, in the Sharjah Airport International Free Zone, DJW’s new base will be run by Southampton couple Josh and Liz Miller. Josh, previously one of DJW’s senior project managers, will now be responsible for all DJW’s projects in the Middle East, whilst Liz will assist with the marketing and administration. Established in 1986, DJW grew from the AV Department of the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu. Since then the company has grown to achieve a multi-million pound turnover and become a major force worldwide in the AV and multi media industry. DJW’s ability and reputation is based on providing creative solutions that deliver the ultimate visitor experience in sound, vision, motion and interaction for museums and attractions worldwide. Recent projects have included the FA Premier League Hall of Fame, London; The Big Idea, Scotland; Bentley Pavilion, VW Autostadt, Germany; Discovery Centre, Sharjah, Shanghai Aquarium; Ballymena Ecos Centre, Ireland and X-treme World, Qatar.Commenting on the expansion, DJW’s managing director, David Willrich, said: "With our associate company Mad Systems in the United States, and the opening of this new office in Sharjah, we are now able to provide a three-cornered coverage of the world. This marks a significant point in DJW’s growth and makes us perfectly placed to expand into India and the Far East."
