Brian Forsdike retires from Screen Europe

Brian Forsdike will retire as president of Screen Europe and chairman of Dainippon Screen UK on 31 March after a 31-year association with the company. His successor is Kees Mulder, a Dutch national who was formally vice president and director corporate business development with Eastman Kodak in Europe. Kees joined Screen Europe on 1 February and will take over as managing director and president of Screen European Operations on 1 April. 

Forsdike joined Screen UK as a salesman in 1976 and has seen the company's technology evolve from cameras to scanner, page makeup systems, imagesetters, platesetters, through to print-on-demand today. "It has been a great privilege to have worked with Screen during a time of great change. It is a pleasure to hand over to Kees who brings passion and energy to Screen at a time when the company is facing its latest transition into a leading print-on-demand technology specialist."
