AXIUM INTERNATIONAL LOS ANGELES (April 12, 2007) – Axium International, the leading provider of entertainment payroll and financial technology and the foremost experts in U.S. production incentives, has opened a satellite office at Albuquerque Studios in order to better serve the ever-increasing needs of film and television productions based at the studio. Having a local office to process payroll allows productions using Axium’s services to receive a larger rebate, as certain payroll components become part of the local spend.
