23/04/25 Kru Live backs Nicolas Hamilton’s return to British Touring Car Championship in inspirational 2025 comeback

Kru Live, the globally recognised live engagement agency, is proud to announce its sponsorship of British racing driver Nicolas Hamilton as he returns to the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) for the 2025 season with Un-Limited Motorsport.

Nicolas Hamilton, the only driver in British Touring Car Championship history to compete with a disability, has consistently broken barriers and inspired fans with his message of inclusion and perseverance. After a powerful performance in 2023, including a standout P6 finish at Donington Park, his 2025 return marks a bold new chapter in his racing journey, one rooted in visibility, impact and purpose.

“There is a place in motorsport for disabled people to feel valued and accepted in multiple roles within the sport, and I want to open people’s eyes to that,” said Nicolas Hamilton. “I want to continue to prove that motorsport is for everyone, and the world of racing can be a place of opportunity and inclusivity. Un-Limited Motorsport and my partners have belief in what I stand for, my talent and my purpose. If I can be accepted, then so can others with a disability.”

As an agency that champions diversity, inclusion and creating meaningful brand experiences, Kru Live is honoured to support Hamilton’s 2025 campaign.

“Nicolas is an extraordinary talent and a force of inspiration. His resilience, purpose and determination to redefine what is possible is exactly the kind of spirit we believe in at Kru,” said Sarah-Jane Benham, CEO of Kru Live Global. “We are incredibly proud to be part of his journey and to support his mission to drive inclusion in motorsport and beyond.”

Hamilton’s 2025 British Touring Car Championship campaign with Un-Limited Motorsport is more than just a racing season. With Kru Live among the proud partners, this moment reinforces a shared commitment to progress, passion and unlocking potential without limits.

    This milestone marks the next phase in Kru Live’s remarkable twenty-year journey from a small start-up in Southampton to a global leader in brand experience staffing. Founder Tom Eatenton, who launched the agency in 2005, will exit the business as part of the transition.

    Kru Live is a market-leading agency that delivers premium staffing, entertainment and live event implementation services for global brands including Renault, PlayStation, Google, Revolut and Heineken.

Joining the Brand Partnership Group allows us to stay true to who we are while unlocking new opportunities, resources and scale that will accelerate our growth and enhance the value we bring to our clients and staff worldwide. We will continue to operate under our existing brand and structure, staying true to the Kru Live culture our clients and crew know and love.”

    The Brand Partnership Group is best known as the group behind Blue Square, an award-winning retail marketing and outsourced field sales solution working with leading brands such as Samsung, HP, Shark Ninja, and EE. The Group is a dynamic network focused on helping brands navigate change through partnerships rooted in consumer insight, digital transformation and scalable innovation.

Together, we are even better positioned to help brands connect with audiences in meaningful and measurable ways.”

    With this acquisition, Kru Live is poised to expand its global footprint, deepen client relationships and offer even greater opportunities for its team and network, while continuing to deliver the world-class service and culture it is known for.

  • 14/04/25 SEC Launches SEConnect: A Groundbreaking £4 Million IT Investment

    The Scottish Event Campus (SEC) in Glasgow has announced the official launch of SEConnect, the largest IT and business investment in the venue’s history.

    This £4 million project represents a significant upgrade to the SEC's IT infrastructure, providing world-class connectivity and secure, reliable wireless coverage. As conference and event organisers increasingly seek advanced technological capabilities, this enhancement will ensure the venue remains at the cutting edge, ready to support the most sophisticated and high-tech exhibitions and shows.

    The SEC hosts a diverse range of events every year. Recent highlights have included;  The Diabetes UK Conference, Disney on Ice and Hyrox.  SEConnect means the campus is now better equipped than ever to enhance the event experience with the ability to cater to events requiring 10 times the technological demands of recent large-scale events like COP26. Featuring new state-of-the-art network switches, advanced firewalls, high-speed cables, cutting-edge wireless access points, and an event feedback and reporting tool, SEConnect ensures comprehensive wireless coverage and high-speed internet services.

    Kathleen Warden, Director of Conference Sales said: "With SEConnect we’re offering our clients the very best in event technology, ensuring fast, reliable, and secure connectivity that enhances every aspect of their events. This investment empowers our customers to deliver more interactive and engaging experiences for their attendees, whether through seamless streaming, real-time engagement tools, or high-speed internet access, all backed up by industry-leading cyber security. SEConnect represents our commitment to providing the infrastructure that enables our clients to succeed, making the SEC the go-to venue for innovative, world-class events.”

    "Managing a project of this scale in an active venue like the SEC required meticulous pre-planning and an agile approach to scheduling," said SEC Head of Project,  Sammia Shakoor. "Our teams had to balance infrastructure upgrades with a full event calendar, working closely with event teams to ensure minimal disruption.

    “Instead of deploying the network in one go, we adapted to a 'start-stop' schedule, moving resources around different venues between events. This allowed us to remain responsive to the needs of our clients while steadily making progress. The success of SEConnect reflects the dedication of every team member and our ability to stay flexible and focused throughout the rollout, for our visitors and clients.”

    Simon Wilson, CPO at HPE Aruba added :”We’re proud to support the SEC in delivering SEConnect, a major step forward in event connectivity. Reliable, high-performance WiFi is essential for modern events, and with Aruba’s technology, SEConnect ensures seamless, secure, and fast digital experiences for organisers, exhibitors, and visitors alike.”

    Stuart Melville, Head of IT at the SEC said:  “This transformative investment solidifies SEC’s position as a leader in the event industry by enhancing visitor experience, streamlining operations, strengthening cybersecurity, and offering a competitive edge to attract top-tier events, reinforcing Glasgow's global reputation as a premier destination for events.”

The Top 10 Best Pubs and Bars in York

York was established by the Romans in 71AD as a fort, with battalions of soldiers, who no doubt enjoyed relaxing with a drink at the tavern after a busy day, so York bars and pubs have been serving drinks for almost 2000 years.  Today, York’s selection of bars is brimming with character, charm, and innovation. York has pubs and bars of every brew from centuries-old inns with spooky tales of ghosts, to classic gastro pubs, and modern craft beer havens, ready for a taste of the city’s drinking establishments? Let’s take a sip.  One of the city's most unique drinking spots is The Roman Bath, where you can sup your pint above a genuine Roman bathhouse. A favourite for history lovers, the pub boasts a small museum showcasing remnants of York’s ancient past. Another gem is The Blue Bell, a tiny Edwardian pub that remains virtually unchanged since the day it opened its doors for the first time. With an intimate atmosphere and classic ales, this friendly and traditional pub offers an authentic experience.For those who enjoy a livelier setting, Charles XII is a popular spot among students and locals alike. Close to the University of York, the pub has a buzzing atmosphere and on sunny afternoons, its spacious beer garden is the perfect place to chillax. Beer enthusiasts won’t want to miss the Last Drop Inn, a cosy pub run by the York Brewery, which serves an excellent selection of locally brewed ales in a warm and inviting setting. And York Tap, located in the city’s historic railway station, boasts an impressive lineup of craft beers from around the world, all served in a beautifully restored Victorian setting that feels like a step back in time. On the other end of the spectrum, Brew York is a must-visit for a brewery and taproom, nestled alongside the River Foss, offers a fantastic selection of beers brewed on-site, often with experimental and locally inspired flavours.It’s not all about beer in this city, if mixers and cocktails are more your style, Evil Eye is the place to be. Hidden on York's oldest street, you'll find an escape from the norms of York and a place to relax. This quirky bar is famed for its inventive drinks, which include an extensive selection of exotic gins. And dancers will enjoy Popworld York, a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, with neon-lit interiors and an infectious playlist made of five decades of pop classics. For somewhere quieter, seek out the Phoenix Inn, a snug public house dating back to the 18th century, committed to serving good northern beers and always has five real ales on tap. The perfect escape from the city hustle and bustle. Last stop, something completely different, Valhalla York, a Norse-themed bar where visitors can sip mead and ale in a Viking-inspired setting, with a pleasing décor of rustic wood and an impressive range of hearty food.With a bar and pub scene as rich as the city itself, York is the perfection destination for parties, gatherings and celebrations of all kinds.
