Demand for premium TV studio space in Sydney is robust, and we are delighted to welcome Silk, further expanding the comprehensive set solutions we can offer our clients. says NEP Australia CEO, Keith Andrews. Harry Michaels has made Silk tremendously successful, and they will continue to run the same way that they always have, including all of the little touches that make them so special.
NEP CEO, Kevin Rabbitt, adds, As NEP continues to expand worldwide, I am thrilled to build on our successful addition of Global Television earlier this year. Silk Studios is a excellent company, and they will make a great addition to our growing worldwide network.
The studios will continue to trade under the Silk Studios name and operate separately to NEP's main studios at Media City, Eveleigh. NEP Australia's Director of Sales, Andy Armstrong, will manage the studios on a day-to-day basis, with Harry Michaels acting as a consultant to ensure a seamless transition.
