The whole process starting with the idea for a new product, via the complete development work with all its challenges, sorting out the manufacturing and ultimately reaching the point when finally the product is launched - all that is more than just work for me, it is a passion.
ESI Audiotechnik GmbH is a global manufacturer of professional audio products. Both with our own ESI product line and various OEM products for a growing of different vendors, our products are used by hundreds of thousands of customers around the globe. As founder and owner of ESI Audiotechnik GmbH, I am responsible for every part of the business: managing the R&D in Germany, taking care of the contact of business partners on the side of suppliers, in particular for the manufacturing, working with R&D partners and of course also involving our international distribution and OEM customers, directly and through our employees.
RIDI multimedia GmbH has been importing professional audio hard and software from Korea, USA, Canada, France, etc. and sold them through a reseller network in Germany and Austria. Between 1999 and 2004 we managed the global marketing and were responsible for the creation of the brand ST Audio and managed worldwide international sales for the product line, especially with a major success in Europe. Starting in 2004, we were deeply involved in development, global marketing and international sales of the ESI product line, including the set up of ESI Audiotechnik GmbH in 2006 as a separate company taking care of ESI business, financing product development, taking care of international sales and funding all worldwide marketing activities. In 2013 RIDI multimedia GmbH has been merged into ESI Audiotechnik GmbH and no longer exists as a separate business.
