Leader Electronics Establishes Leader Europe Limited

Leader Electronics has formed Leader Europe Limited as a business platform for the European region with effect from from Oct. 1, 2017. Leader has operated a UK representative office in London since August 2014, managed by Koichi Fukagawa and (from August 2015) Kevin Salvidge, both of whom will continue to develop the European market for Leader.

“This is the culmination of two years of hard work,” says Salvidge. “When we initially discussed this project back in 2015, we hoped to be in a position to propose to Japan the formation of Leader Europe Limited during 2018. Being able to announce the company’s establishment 12 months ahead of schedule is testament to the skill of the Leader team in Japan and the engagement of our European channel partners who are actively introducing our products to their customers.”

Leader will continue to showcase its approach to test and measurement, including intuitive real-time false colour and graphical displays which ensure that operational and production staff can maximize the quality of their content. Technicians still have full access to the classic waveform monitoring and vectorscope tools.

Leader Europe Limited is located at dedicated offices at First Central 200 in London’s Park Royal, supporting its existing customer base and its expanding team of channel partners throughout Europe.

Leader Electronics develops, manufactures and sells electronic measuring instruments in Japan and internationally. Leader products, including 4K HDR waveform monitors and rasterizers, are specified for research, development, broadcast, production and service applications.

Progressing with measurement technology as the basis of our business, Leader has evolved its products and supporting services to meet the demands of each era and will continue to pursue various forms of value provision into the future. Leader test instruments are high-precision, reliable, easy to use, compact and accountant-friendly. Leader innovations include the 4K waveform monitor (LV5490) plus the CINELITE and CINEZONE monitoring tools which allow creatives to make optimal use of available dynamic range and luminance.
