This year, MSP Global proudly celebrates 25 years as one of the UK’s leading technical event production companies. Since opening our first Liverpool office in 2000, we’ve grown from a small local business into a trusted partner for world-class live, virtual and hybrid events, delivering creativity, precision, and innovation every step of the way.
From Liverpool Roots to Global Productions
Founded by Colin Reader and Lisa Richards, MSP began with a clear mission: to combine technical excellence with exceptional client service. What started with a small team and a few projects has evolved into the comprehensive event production company we are today offering:
Full technical event production
Creative content production
AV equipment hire and staging solutions
Video and live streaming services
Event design, lighting, and sound
Today, MSP supports clients across the UK and internationally, bringing bold ideas to life through cutting-edge technology and expert project management.
25 Years of Growth, Change and Creativity
Over the last quarter century, the events industry has transformed, and MSP has evolved with it. From analogue to digital, and from in-person experiences to global hybrid events, our dedicated and talented team has consistently delivered innovative AV solutions that inspire and engage audiences.
We’re proud to work with leading corporate brands, educational institutions, and major event venues, helping them deliver seamless, memorable productions supported by our trusted technical expertise.
Investing in People and Partnerships
Our success is built on people. Our talented in-house engineers, producers, and project managers are supported by a network of over 50 skilled freelance technicians — many of whom started their careers with MSP.
We work closely with local universities and training providers to nurture new talent and provide real-world experience for those entering the event production industry. We’re also proud to champion neurodiverse creativity, recognising the unique focus and innovation that diverse perspectives bring to technical production.
As Managing Director Colin Reader says:
“It’s about relationships, trust, and never cutting corners. After 25 years here – and 40 in the game – I think we’ve got the balance right.”
Looking Ahead: The Future for MSP
As we celebrate our 25 year anniversary, we remain committed to the same values that defined our beginning — innovation, collaboration, and quality. The next chapter will focus on sustainability, inclusive practices, and pioneering new event technologies that push the boundaries of what’s possible.
We’d like to thank our clients, partners, and team members — past and present — for being part of this incredible journey. Here’s to the next 25 years of creativity, technology, and trust.
