scale of business, while nurturing a client-centric culture that focuses on

providing the very best service that Take 2 is known for. We are thrilled to

know many members of the team and I now look forward to working alongside them. The Procam

Group ownership moves Take 2 onward and upward, and I am hugely excited to be
