Grand Hall Zollverein further expands its furniture and technology collection
The Essen-based special event location Grand Hall Zollverein is consistently expanding its range of services by investing in its in-house technology and furniture pool. The operators of the 4,000 square meter event hall at the Zollverein coking plant have used the summer break to add several hundred pieces of furniture to their inventory. With their investment, the makers of the Grand Hall are pursuing the goal of being able to host events with up to 500 participants without the need for external service providers.

On tour with the mobile disco in the 1980s - today a multi-entrepreneur in the event industry
Spotlights, loudspeakers, a handful of cables and creativity. It didn't take much more for two guys to lay the foundations for their group of companies with event technology for trade fairs and events (yes, a real garage story!). It all started with a mobile disco - we're talking about the mid-1980s. Tom Koperek and his friend, now his long-standing business partner Sven Robusch, used it to create an atmosphere in and around the Ruhr area after school. It was worth it: "For us at just 18 years old, we were already earning quite well," says Koperek. It gave them such a boost that they decided to train as lighting and stage technicians and go on tour with theater and show productions.
