Photographer and videographer Ash Stanley has chosen Oberoi Business Hub in Derby’s Pride Park as the base for the next stage in his business life.
Ash, who is also an accomplished actor and producer, has branched out on his own after running AV IT Media with fellow directors Mark and Jenny Averill for the past seven years.
His client portfolio has included such well-known celebrities as Olly Murs, Nicky Clarke and Bananarama, with long-standing corporate clients ranging from EMR to Trent Barton.
Keen to concentrate on developing these aspects of his work, Ash has set up A S Studios and largely works off-site around the UK and internationally. He has therefore set up a virtual office with the option for desk and meeting room space at Oberoi Business Hub in St Christopher’s Way.
He explained: “After several fantastic and happy years at AV IT, I am looking forward to the next chapter in my professional life with the space to focus on exciting collaborations with my corporate and celebrity clients.
“It is both exciting and nerve-wracking to be starting up a new business venture so I very much welcomed the opportunity to have a virtual office at Oberoi Business Hub.
“Not only is Pride Park a recognisable and prestigious address, Oberoi offer a wide range of back office services and the flexibility to use their office and meeting room facilities which will be ideal – particularly for clients wanting to come here by train for a meeting or photo shoot.
“Kavita Oberoi has also been long-standing client and friend and has been incredibly supportive in this new chapter of my life.”
Oberoi Business Hub was founded by managing director Kavita Oberoi OBE in 2012 to provide high quality, cost effective and flexible support services to help businesses and organisations flourish and grow.
She explained: “Ash is a brilliant photographer and videographer and I am delighted that he has chosen Oberoi Business Hub to support him on his new venture.
“I know from personal experience just how difficult it is to set up a new business and to juggle being out and about working with clients and managing simple things like urgent correspondence and parcel deliveries.
“Our manned virtual office where our team handle post and parcels on their behalf as well as the options for physical desk and meeting room facilities available on a flexible basis therefore provides business owners with an efficient and cost effective option.”
Oberoi Business Hub manager Jodie Brady concluded: “We look forward to working with Ash and I know from feedback from our other virtual office clients just how important it is for businesses to have a Pride Park office address and the support provided by our team here.”
