Robert Arnold, the son of one of the ARRI co-founders, is selling his 50 per cent share of the company to the grandchildren of co-founders Richter/Stahl. Both families have shared responsibility for ARRI since it was founded 95 years ago. The globally active company, previously run by both families, will now be in the sole responsibility of the Richter/Stahl family. The Stahl family has expressed its intention to continue pursuing the media business of ARRI in the Bavarian film and media industry as well as internationally. ARRI has a global presence with offices in Australia, Canada, the USA, Austria, Italy, the UK, Hong Kong and China (Beijing office opened in early 2012) and more than 50 service and support partners worldwide. In addition, ARRI has a global network of rental offices in Munich, Berlin, Cologne, Leipzig, Los Angeles, New York, Miami, London, Vienna, Budapest and Prague. ARRI offers a full spectrum of services under the ARRI Media Services banner (ARRI Rental, ARRI Film & TV, ARRI Productions and ARRI Worldsales), including project planning, equipment, on-set and near-set services, post production, archiving, and collaboration as co-production partner or global distributor.www.arri.com
