Nick Owen.
Nick Owen has been hired by Crown International as sales director for Europe/UK, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Owen is a familiar face in the pro audio industry, most notably from his nearly nine-year tenure as president of international sales and marketing for Soundscape Digital Technology Limited, a company he co-founded in 1993. In the year prior to joining Crown, Owen was the managing director for yello! digital production tools UK Limited.

"Nick is a tremendous boon for Crown," commented Crown president Blake Augsburger. "His dozen years of international sales experience dealing with a myriad of cultures around the world will be of enormous benefit to our company’s presence overseas. Furthermore, Nick’s in-depth knowledge of audio technology, software and networks will be particularly useful for the growth and development of Crown’s IQ technology sales."

Currently reporting to Augsburger, Owen will, in his new capacity, manage all sales activities relating to the EMEA markets. In addition to regularly visiting distributors, dealers, contractors and consultants throughout these territories, he will also act as a liaison between the field and Crown factory on product development, large-scale sales opportunities and various marketing issues.
