d&b audiotechnik Greater China will also establish offices in Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai in the future. A total of 44 co-workers from the previous partner, based in Hong Kong, Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai, will join the new cooperation.
The leadership of the new d&b audiotechnik subsidiary will be in in the hands of Daniel Chan, who has had a long association with d&b audiotechnik and the Chinese market. He will assume the position of managing director (CEO) of d&b audiotechnik Greater China.
Freddie To, also from the previous partner, will join the advisory board alongside an external market expert, who will be announced shortly, and Amnon Harman, CEO of the d&b audiotechnik Group. d&b audiotechnik holds the majority interest in the new cooperation. Chan and To will be co-owners.
