When Kirk Basefsky and Robin Heywood founded Burst in 1991, they were enthusiastic about becoming a professional video and broadcast equipment dealer that put the customer's needs before the sale. In doing so, they blazed a new trail in selling solutions first, product second. Nearly a decade later, the partners realized they could better serve their clients by providing systems and integration solutions, too. In early 2000, Basefsly and Heywood expanded operations to offer a more complete service and fulfill the increased demand for systems integration.

Today, Basefsky and Heywood oversee a sizeable company with headquarters in Denver, Colorado and offices across the West. Their staff is comprised of experienced, knowledgeable people who enjoy their work and aren't afraid to show it. Burst's sales engineers average 18 years in the industry and are extremely knowledgeable on the subject of cutting edge technology. They know the right questions to ask so they can recommend the most suitable equipment or integration solution for you.

In this age of mergers and acquisitions, Burst remains privately held and managed.
