Joe’s experience and innovative approach will compliment our existing strong global team in taking us from our foundations of cinema and into other media channels.”
“There is a real scope for Yummi to move into the media space and I am looking forward to rapidly expanding the global footprint of phonix, not only in cinema but into other channels including television and live events,” added Evea.
