Honestly, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVED this episode!!! I dare you not to smile after you listen. Jeremy Fleming along with wife Tabitha ran a hugely successful staging company called Stage King.  Designing, engineering and building elaborate stages for major arts and sporting events such as the Edinburgh Tattoo. The company was hugely successful in a relatively short time… Then in early March the Sydney-based company were in Melbourne, where they had created and incredible and intricate stage at the Grand Prix for Robbie Williams and Miley Cyrus to perform on. Then COVID-19 struck…

 

Lock down rules and group gatherings banned meant the events industry had literally been stopped in its tracks. Thanks to some quick thinking, and Mick Glossop the companies 2IC (who designs and makes furniture in his spare time as a hobby – love you Mick) a new business was created almost overnight. The company are now making working from home furniture – and it is bloody lovely and super stylish to boot! Not only have they pivoted like a ballerina saving jobs and creating others they are also giving a part of each sale to charity! At a time we can all do with some ‘good news’ I am sure you’ll enjoy listening – get your ears around this one! xx
