Louis Gass — Action Plan
February 2026
Context
This action plan summarises the key outcomes and agreed next steps from the business development meeting between Dan Radford, Andy Smith, and Louis Gass on 18 February 2026. The meeting set out Louis’s pathway into managing productions end-to-end — starting with a dedicated venue (Banking Hall) — while continuing to develop core technical skills in vision mixing, streaming, and post-production.
6. Bigger Picture — Why This Matters
This restructuring frees Dan and Andy to focus on business development and direct-to-client relationships — which have the potential to significantly grow revenue beyond sub-contract work through AV companies.
Louis’s strong soft skills, rapid technical growth, and understanding of on-site requirements make him a natural fit for this expanded role.
The transition is designed to stretch Louis without pulling him away from the creative and technical development that remains core to his ambition and value to the company.
AI tools and process efficiencies will be introduced once foundational understanding is solid — learn the craft first, then leverage the shortcuts.
Open, frequent communication across the team is critical. The new Gass Current WhatsApp group will support this alongside face-to-face collaboration.
