MEDIATEC BROADCAST GROUP BECOMES NEP

Mediatec Broadcast Group, headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, announced today that it has changed its company name to NEP. The change is effective immediately and includes all affiliated companies in Belgium, Finland, Germany, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland. The group will operate as a part of the NEP Worldwide Network and the affiliated companies are named NEP Belgium, NEP Finland, NEP Germany, NEP Norway, NEP Sweden and NEP Switzerland.

NEP Worldwide Network is owned by NEP Group, headquartered in Pittsburgh, USA, a leading worldwide provider of outsourced production solutions offering technical services for outside broadcasting, studio production, host broadcasting, post production, smart asset/media management, multi-screen delivery and end-to-end OTT solutions.

“These changes will allow NEP to operate much more seamlessly across regions and provide an even higher level of service to our clients", says Kevin Rabbitt, CEO of NEP Group. “While these brands have served our clients very well over the years, we feel it’s in everyone’s best interest to act as one team, particularly as we are finding more situations where it’s necessary to provide solutions to clients across multiple countries and regions.”
