After eight years at the helm Michael Broadbent will be stepping down as APAC managing director and take up the newly created APAC Chairman role, working full time to the end of this year and then part time thereafter. Dan Fletcher, general manager of Midwich’s subsidiary, Blonde Robot, will take the helm for Midwich.
Broadbent commented: “After more than 30 years in AV, I thought it was time to slow down and start the journey to retirement. The last eight years of being part of Midwich has been very special and I am proud of what we have been able to achieve and build through dynamic and at times challenging periods.
“My thanks to all the Midwich and Blonde Robot staff for their support as well as all the people in the industry who I have been lucky enough to work with. I know the business is in good hands with Dan Fletcher taking over the helm and I look forward to continuing to work with the team and our customers and vendors as APAC Chairman.”
Fletcher said: “I am excited about the opportunity to continue to build on the excellent work that Michael and the Midwich team have achieved throughout the APAC region and I look forward to working closer with the wider AV industry.”
These changes are effective from November 1, 2022.
