Our History.
Pre-2019
Laying the Groundwork of Expertise
Before SPOR Group was born, our founders—Chris Spence and Chris Gore—were integral to the world’s largest AV integrator. During this time, they managed some of the biggest AV deployments for leading global brands. It was here they observed a significant gap: while large AV companies were expertly set up to handle multi-million-pound projects, they often overlooked the medium-sized projects (valued between £250,000 and £1.5m) that demand bespoke, agile solutions and dedicated support.

The Birth of SPOR Group
