What StriveAV does
Strive AV Limited is a UK-based commercial audiovisual systems integrator founded in 1999 and headquartered in East Grinstead, West Sussex. The company designs, supplies, installs, programs and supports audiovisual and unified communications systems across meeting rooms, boardrooms, lecture theatres, video walls, digital signage, sound masking, audio systems, command and control rooms, visitor management, and occupancy analytics. Its certified engineering teams deliver across Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms, Cisco Webex, Google Meet and Pexip video conferencing platforms, with AV-over-IP (SDVoE, Crestron NVX, Q-SYS NV) and DSP platforms (Q-SYS, Biamp) underpinning the technical architecture, and integrations into regulated workflows such as MIFID II compliance recording (Smarsh, NICE, Verba, Theta Lake) and trading-floor market data and turrets (Bloomberg, Refinitiv, FactSet, BT IP Trade, Etrali, IPC).
The company serves enterprise, financial services, legal, higher education, healthcare, retail, hospitality, public sector, and places of worship clients, with UK-wide delivery from headquarters plus engineering teams along the M25 and M62 corridors, sole supply framework contracts at multiple UK universities (Imperial College London, Cardiff Metropolitan, Goldsmiths, University of Sussex), and a white-label International AV Partner model for overseas integrators deploying UK projects. Notable named customers include Bloomberg, Vodafone, Toyota, Pirelli, Fujifilm, Haleon, Innocent Drinks, Cheyne Capital, the University of Oxford, and Warwickshire Council. Reference pricing for meeting room AV ranges from approximately £4,000-£8,000 for huddle rooms to £30,000-£60,000+ for boardrooms, with hybrid support contracts at £1,800-£3,500 per room per year; lifecycle support is delivered via a 24-hour manned service desk with a four-hour response SLA on critical faults.
Commercially, StriveAV generates revenue through project-based AV systems integration, equipment supply, programming, and managed support services, complemented by an AV-as-a-Service subscription offering that bundles equipment, installation, support and refresh into fixed monthly payments for OPEX buyers. Distribution is direct project-based delivery plus procurement framework engagement (Crown Commercial Service, NEUPC, LUPC, SUPC, HEPCW, ESPO, NEPO) for public sector and education clients. The business is privately held by Managing Director and Owner Toni Moss, who acquired the company in February 2016; leadership comprises a director team of seven across technical sales, commercial, sales, operations, project management and regional sales, supported by 20+ accredited specialists.
