NEP New Zealand officially opens its doors and begins trading under its new name and branding today, completing the integration of NZ Live into NEP Group, the worldwide outsourced technical production partner supporting premier content producers of live sports and entertainment.

NEP Group acquired NZ Live in April.

“This is an exciting new chapter in our company’s history,” said Oliver Pitkin, General Manager - NEP New Zealand. “We’re building on our strong New Zealand heritage, market knowledge and relationships with access to NEP’s deep pool of global resources. The feedback from longstanding and potential clients has been fantastic, and we’re actively pursuing the growth opportunities now open to us as part of the NEP Worldwide Network.”

NEP New Zealand will work closely with the company’s Australian division and report to NEP Australia President Soames Treffry 

“We welcome the highly talented NZ team into the NEP family,” Soames Treffry commented. “We’re giving them every support they need to grow the business and provide a wider range of broadcasters and content owners with an array of services unmatched in the New Zealand market.”
