Lightware Visual Engineering, the Budapest, Hungary-based manufacturer for the professional integrated systems market, appointed Sven Pelters, as its new Global Training Manager.

Working from his native Germany, Pelters’ first task will be managing the opening of the organization’s Training Center in the country that will provide state-of-the-art training in key strategic areas for the company including equipment demos, operation and processes. Once successfully up and running, Pelters will then oversee the opening of further Training Centers around the world as Lightware continues to expand its global business.

As well as establishing the new Training Center at Lightware, Pelters will oversee the operation and development of Lightware’s team of trainers in the company’s expanding network of offices all around the world. He will also leverage his extensive experience to fulfill the role of Lightware’s main trainer in Germany.
