About MEDIAM
Mediam’s origins date back to the early 1980s, when Włodzimierz Duval – the company’s founder and current president – began manufacturing 0-10V lighting controllers. The company quickly became a major supplier of controllers to the most popular entertainment venues in Krakow. It also began to design and equip the largest clubs in Poland.
Based on the experience gained, Modus was founded in the mid-1990s. It quickly established international business contacts and became a distributor for the Polish market of such companies as STANTON, FAL, JEM, MA-LIGHTING, ACR and then SGM, VESTAX, ORTOFON, ANTARI, LPS.
In 1997, Modus presented its products for the first time at the INTERMEDIA trade fair in Wroclaw and participated in all its subsequent editions.
On January 23, 2003, Mediam spółka z o.o. was established as a continuation of Modus in distributing equipment to the Polish market. Mediam company added distribution of the following companies to its offer: COEF, VERLINDE, ARKAOS, ENTTEC.
In the following years, the company expanded its offer to include the production and implementation of laser shows, directing and implementation of multimedia shows, effect lighting, as well as the design and implementation of PA, conference and theater systems. Mediam also launched a professional service for acoustic, lighting and laser equipment (including Coef, Futurelight, Martin, Clay Paky, JBL, Vestax, Numark, Omnitronic, Pioneer, Denon, Kvant, Martin, Tarm, etc.).
