The sales office will now be twinned with a technical office for immediate customer support, and overseen by Simon Canins, the R&D director at Astera.
Balazs Maar, financial controller at Astera, commented, "There are two main drivers for this decision, which we made after thorough analysis of various options for the location of our office. First, our Rüdesheim office was costly and too large for our needs. Second, moving to Munich will give us access to a larger talent pool to meet future recruiting needs, not just in this region, but also internationally."
Sebastian Bückle, sales & marketing director at Astera, said, "Being in the heart of Germany will be great for establishing Astera as the go-to brand for German wireless event lighting. It's an important step forward for us and I'm excited about the opportunities Munich will bring to our company and employees."
