Roel and Pierre both grew up in the Netherlands, not far from one another, but never actually met until years later while they were both on business trips in America. They remained in contact over the years and eventually decided to go into business together. Together, they built Symcon Group, which is a global supplier of consumables, raw materials, and high-quality parts, servicing industries using vacuum deposition, thin-film, surfacing, injection molding, and coating technologies. (Simply put, they make the stuff that goes in CDs and DVDs). The CD industry was booming in the late 80s early 90s, and so was their business. Their team built Symcon group to become the largest reseller of secondhand equipment in the industry and they now have offices in the USA, Netherlands, Brazil, Colombia, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. Roel and Pierre discuss the wave of success that came along with the rise of CDs and DVDs, and how they have adapted to the rapidly changing market of digital entertainment. They have worked with leaders in the entertainment industry, names like Disney and Sony, and they aren’t slowing down any time soon. We hope you enjoy this episode.
