The company, which projected notably onto the Taj Mahal Hotel in Mumbai during its centenary celebrations, views India as a major potential market for its well proven mix of creative talent, technical proficiency, and service, as managing director Ross Ashton explains: "The country is steeped in rich cultural heritage, and so much of what we do has historical themes. Equally there is a burgeoning commercial events sector and we do a vast number of commercial and corporate events supporting production companies with our specialist skills.
"Having had our work so well received in India previously, we think that this is a great opportunity for us to meet with Indian producers who we would seek to work with on large-scale state and commercial events."
Ashton established E//T//C UK 12 years ago, having previously worked with the French parent company, the company offers content creation, hardware, technicians, and expertise. E//T//C combines PIGI and large scale video, being a supplier of the revolutionary Onlyview multi-screen video software control system.
E//T//C UK's client base spans all sectors of the entertainment industry, from large scale spectaculars, outdoor events, and 'son et lumiéres', to TV productions like the MTV Awards. Milestones include the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester, The Accession of the New Member States to the European Union in Malta, the Sultan of Oman's 35th Anniversary, last year's and the current Edinburgh Military Tattoo, and of course, the Queen's Golden Jubilee.
