The company has been formed by industry veterans who are dedicated to show control products that will make a real difference for operators, designers, and the audience. The company's products will incorporate innovative solutions for hardware, software, and networking, as well as what it claims will be unique user interfaces.
The-Fun-Company is a multinational enterprise, with offices in Germany, Scandinavia, North America, and the UK, enabling it to provide regional support for the products, as well as direct channels for user feedback to the product development team from the major markets in the industry.
"The-Fun-Company is currently in the middle of a development process for a whole new range of show control systems and we will in the near future schedule a presentation to the industry of the first working prototypes", says company co-founder and spokesman Oliver M Klaeffling.
