In the world of corporate events, precision and consistency are key.


Engaging a dedicated Technical Director (TD) to travel with you across multiple events can streamline operations, enhance efficiency, and ensure a superior experience for attendees. Here’s why having a travelling TD is a game-changer for your events.

“We run national roadshows for client, and having the same Technical Director across all venues is a game-changer.

Our clients don't have to brief a different AV team at each stop, which saved them countless hours and ensures a seamless experience.

Every venue gets set up consistently, and any adjustments we make in one location carried through to the next, improving efficiency and overall execution.”

— Luke Fosbury, AV1 Producer

1. Consistency

A travelling Technical Director provides continuity across all your events. They develop a deep understanding of your brand, ensuring that every conference or meeting meets the same high standards. This uniformity creates a seamless experience for both speakers and attendees, eliminating inconsistencies in audio visual production.

2. Understanding your preferences

Over time, your TD will become familiar with your preferences, requirements, and expectations. This familiarity allows for smoother communication and execution of audio visual elements, ensuring that your vision is brought to life exactly as you imagine it.

3. Efficiency

With repeated exposure to your event setups, a travelling TD will work faster and more effectively. Their deep knowledge of your specific needs reduces preparation time, minimises troubleshooting, and leads to overall cost savings.

4. Problem-solving skills

Events don’t always go to plan, and technical issues can arise at the worst moments. A seasoned TD has the experience and expertise to quickly diagnose and resolve problems, minimising disruptions and ensuring the show goes on without a hitch.

5. Customisation

By consistently working with the same TD, you can tailor your event production to suit your specific goals. From staging to lighting, your TD can refine and adjust elements over time to create a more engaging and memorable experience for your audience.

6. Building trust

Trust is a major factor in event success. When you work with the same TD, you build a relationship based on reliability and mutual understanding. This rapport leads to better collaboration and a stress-free experience for everyone involved.

7. Streamlined communication

Having a dedicated TD means you don’t have to re-explain your needs at every event. Communication becomes more direct and efficient, reducing the potential for misinterpretation and ensuring that your requirements are met with precision.

In summary…

Engaging a travelling Technical Director ensures consistency, efficiency, and problem-solving expertise across all your events. It eliminates unnecessary stress, enhances the quality of production, and ultimately improves the experience for clients and attendees alike.

Luke Fosbury, one of AV1’s expert Producers, puts it best:

“Working with a dedicated Technical Director across multiple events is like having an extension of your team. They get to know your brand inside out, anticipate challenges before they arise, and deliver a seamless event every time.”

When it comes to delivering premium event experiences, a travelling Technical Director isn’t just a luxury—it’s a strategic advantage.
