Universal Live have invested in a new headquarters in West Yorkshire, officially moving into its new purpose-built site on 11 June 2021.
Over the 15 years at its previous Bradford head office, Universal Live has grown in people, skills and technical equipment, outgrowing its office and warehouse spaces. The decision was made to move to somewhere where the company could offer a better service level to its clients.
The new site consists of 1758 sqm of office, meeting and warehouse space. Within this space, there are two gallery studios that will host virtual events for clients, working alongside Universal Live’s Manchester broadcast studio.
Universal Live’s new headquarters aims to allow the company to continue to grow in both the live and virtual hybrid events industry, with its warehouse allowing for more than ample space to invest and store new equipment, easily loaded and sent to anywhere in the world.
Kirsty Waine, managing director of Universal Live, said: “We are so glad to have officially moved into our new head office, this has been a long-time coming for us and, there has been significant planning and research into the best premises to move into, which to allow for us to continue to grow and offer the best service to our clients.
“Our new site allows us to do just that and much more, we have a great virtual solution within the same building, which clients can use for their virtual and hybrid events, truck loading efficiency will be increased tenfold with all kit under one roof and door to truck load in and out. We are so excited for what the future holds and this is definitely the best step forward for the company, our team and our clients.”
