News Image
Pixit Media has announced it is to extend its operations, having appointed Escape Technology GmbH as its exclusive reseller partner in the DACH region (Germany, Austria and Switzerland).

Escape Technology, an established business in London for over 12 years, is expanding, and at the beginning of September, launched in Munich. It also offers the full portfolio of products and services currently available to their UK customers, who specialise in producing visual effects (VFX) for film, TV, commercials, 3D visualisation and game design.

Pixit Media will build on the success of its existing UK partnership with Escape Technology in the VFX market, utilising the expertise and local knowledge of the new Escape Technology GmbH business to further extend the reach of its software-defined scale-out storage systems.

Ben Leaver, Managing Director at Pixit Media, said: "This is a unique opportunity for Pixit Media to enter into the DACH market. Escape Technology is the ideal partner in this region – the team's understanding of the marketplace and the industry will enable them to position our platform, deploy solutions and provide the high level of support that our customers expect."

Steve Tyson, Escape Technology's international business director, added: "I'm excited to be partnering with Pixit Media as we expand our business into Germany with a team of industry specialists. We're looking to replicate the success we have achieved in London and offer our central European customers a top notch service with best-in-breed products from manufacturers like Pixit Media."
