HAMBURG, Germany., August 10, 2008 — Elite Screens GmbH an innovative company that specializes in affordable high quality projector screens for the European AV market, today announced its expansion into Belarus, the Ukraine, Czech Republic, Slovakia  and the Baltic States. To accomplish this, they are bringing aboard Dmitrijs Malinovskis, an 11-year veteran sales manager in the Eastern European audio-video market.
            “There is a growing need for projection technology in the Eastern European countries and Elite Screens is proud be part of the solution,” said Dave Rodgers, marketing manager of Elite Screens’ world corporate office near Los Angeles, California. “We’re excited about unleashing Dmitrij’s talents on this market. His efforts to protect the interests of his customers while forming sound business relationships speak volumes on his character and I am proud to work with him.”

He speaks four languages and has eleven years’ experience in AV sales in the Eastern European market.   His mission is to provide his region with quality projection screens and the excellent customer service that Elite Screens is known for in America. His previous experience with TD Baltic, one of the fastest-growing IT companies in the Baltic States has helped Dima pave the way into this market.
