His experience includes many successful years as UK sales manager with Glastonbury-based Batmink Distribution.

Based in Stockholm, Charlie Gustafsson is now the key account manager entertainment EMEA, and will be looking after the company’s customers throughout the Nordic region.
Charlie’s career began back in 1988, when, after finishing his military service in the special forces, he saw a job ad for a tech at an AV company. Charlie went on to form strong links with the Vari-Lite brand, joining VLPS (Vari-Lite Production Services) in 1999 and staying with the company through its various transitions, to VLSC (Vari-Lite Scandinavia), then Starlight and - as it is today - Bright Sweden. In the process, he worked his way up from tech, to project manager and then key account manager, working on more shows than he cares to remember!
Antonia Richardson has taken up a business development role in the New Zealand office. She will be working directly with end-users, whilst maintaining relationships with current customers throughout New Zealand.
