Now that Panasonic has spun off its Visual Solutions business, the new organization is making changes to its brand. Alongside Panasonic Connect, there will be a new sub-brand for projectors and displays, called Mevix.
Projectors: Panasonic Launches New Sub-Brand Mevix
Panasonic has launched Mevix, a new sub-brand for its ProAV lineup. In the future, Mevix will offer a range of visual solutions alongside Panasonic Connect projectors, displays, and DV LED screens. The name Mevix stands for Media, Entertainment, and Visual Transformation.
Leading up to the change in branding and corporate structure was the sale of Panasonic’s display and projector business to the financial investor Orix about a year ago. As part of that sale, the division was set to become an independent company – Panasonic Projector & Display Corporation – by April 2025. Mevix will operate as a sub-brand of this new company.
Panasonic has confirmed that Mevix products will be fully compatible with existing Panasonic Connect AV systems. However, Mevix will no not have a pure product focus, but wants to offer complete AV ecosystems instead. This entails a new focus on software and services, as well as integration with third-party systems through cloud and API structures. As part of this new software offering, Panasonic has announced new tools to support design and maintenance workflows.
Jan Markus Jahn becomes Managing Director
Panasonic Projector & Display EMEA will officially begin operations on October 1, 2025, led by Jan Markus Jahn, who already headed the Media and Entertainment division for some time. The new company will focus heavily on expanding in the Middle East and Africa, where it sees the biggest potential for immersive experiences – one of the vertical where the projector market is experiencing, in contrast to the declining corporate segment.
“We launched Mevix alongside Panasonic to highlight our strong focus on visual solutions,” said Jan Markus Jahn. “With Mevix, we offer customers a single platform with all the tools, resources, and cutting-edge technologies they need to create transformative experiences – while reinforcing Panasonic’s position as a market leader in the fast-evolving AV industry.”
