Bright Group is a supplier of live events services in Northern Europe including audio, video and lighting solutions, trucking, stages, infrastructure/installations and camera production. Bright Group was established and became a portfolio company of CapMan in 2011 when AVAB-CAC and Eastway joined forces to support the event and entertainment services business in the Nordics.
