Hi,

I'm a representative of Sony. Or

I'm a representative for Sony.

Do these mean the same thing? What's the difference if they dont. Thank you.

They mean pretty much the same thing. To me, the second may have slightly more of a sense that you are a Sony employee, and the first that you are an external professional representing them in some specific matter. This is not clear-cut though.
