Business Development
Magnetic Storm is a technical solutions provider and rental company based in Port Elizabeth, South Africa.
The company that has been running successfully for 33 years servicing a wide range of high quality corporate clients and live events, and is the oldest established and also the largest such operation in the Eastern Cape region.
Magnetic Storm originally invested in Robe moving lights – the 575 series – some years ago, which have proved reliable and solid for many years done dealing with Magnetic Storm’s busy schedule of events.
When the time came to upgrade with the latest technology, they decided to go with LED and purchased four Robe DLS Profiles and four DLX Spots from Robe’s South African distributor, DWR.
LED was chosen because its good value, longer lamp life, lower ongoing maintenance and expedient power consumption made good sense economically and environmentally.
Glenn van Eck, CEO of Magnetic Storm states, “Robe offered by far the best option at the right price” and adds that it is a “Recognized professional industry standard brand” in addition to highlighting the excellent service and support from DWR which is “Always good … and another reason to buy Robe”.
Although making events ‘greener’ has not been at the forefront of the market in the area, he says that they are aware that as a leading company, they do have responsibilities to protect the environment and reduce their impact upon it where possible.
Magnetic Storm’s crew are also very proud to be working for the first company to have this technology in the area, and one of the first events on which the new fixtures were used was the Nelson Mandela Bay Chamber of Commerce Annual Banquet.
Creative Technology Middle East (CTME) is based in the UAE, KSA, & Qatar, and delivers technical design, planning and production for some of the most ambitious and dynamic live events and system integration projects in the region.
Houston and San Antonio, Texas-based rental and event production solutions company LD Systems has invested in 32 x new Robe iFORTE LTX moving lights, purchased specifically to pair with their existing 14 x RoboSpot remote follow spotting control systems.
Perfect Ovation is a successful family-run company with a busy Dubai dry hire facility and a full production operation in Oman supplying lighting, sound, and LED screens to a diverse mix of shows and events.
Princess Cruises, a leader in worldwide cruising, has taken a major step toward sustainability and delivering outstanding live performances by upgrading the lighting rig in their 1000-seat Princess Theatre on the Crown, Emerald, and Ruby Princess ships. In a project completed in 2023, Princess Cruises Fleet Lighting Supervisor Matt DeJong and the Princess Entertainment Technical team selected Robe Lighting TE (TRANSFERABLE ENGINE) fixtures, ushering in a new era of LED lighting technology to enhance the cruise line's entertainment offerings.
