Peter Robinson

The biggest compliment I can give to Petter is to say I have never had a call with him that hasn't overrun through choice. His passion and deep knowledge in creating for young audiences leaves you enthused and your mind fizzing with excitement and ideas.

Klas Hammarström

I can’t imagine working with a more passionate, creative and playful colleague than Petter. We worked together over two years in various projects and during that time Petter grew into a great leader for the team, a carrier of the kids perspective and a spokesman for diversity. Working with Petter means that you are never far away from laughter while at the same time developing creative ideas and solutions. Petter have an unique way of bringing new perspectives, including the team and always wanting to improve quality.
