About Us.

The Media Powerhouse Group.

Our Story

Founded on 5 July 2007, we have built a strong reputation in audio-visual system integration and event production. Starting at Elstree Film Studios, we expanded in 2017 to the Parkbury Estate St Albans, where we occupy two units designed to support our growing AV capabilities and improve client support.

Over time, we have evolved to offer large-format print and scenic set production in-house, strengthening our ability to deliver complete AV and event solutions. With a team of over 75 specialists, we support corporate AV, exhibitions, live events, and permanent installations, giving clients a single-source partner for all things Audio Visual, Creative Print, Events & Scenic. 

Strength Through Growth

Expanding The Media Powerhouse Group through strategic acquisitions and the development of in-house brands, we’ve added specialist expertise in AV system design, scenic staging, and event print solutions. By combining this knowledge, we ensure every project benefits from proven industry-leading experience.
