– I have been both competing and collaborating with Visual Art for a long time and always been impressed with their focus on customer-value and the courage to go from focusing on hardware and software, to a more strategic and customer focused take on the industry. Visual Art takes the time to collaborate with the customer to understand their strategies and goals, providing the best solution to meet those goals. Additionally, the people I have met across the organization have always been extremely friendly, open, and supportive, and I am very excited to grow the business together with the team, says Mikael Wigart, Business Manager at Visual Art Norway.
