DIA Acquires 10% stake in TCC

We are very pleased to announce that after numerous discussions and meetings over recent weeks, The Crewing Company have signed a deal with DIA which will see a ten percent share of the recruitment business issued to the media investment vehicle backed by former Soho Editors MD David Brady and former Resolution Post MD Dan Gable.
The contract was signed at this week's Broadcast Video Expo and sees The Crewing Company now working closely with other DIA backed and associated companies including broadcast hire firm Alias Smith & Singh - who TCC will work closely with to supply cost effective, fully equipped crew solutions to clients all over the UK - and The Bridge, a media training business established to be the "go to" place for the creative industries and to bridge the gap between education and employment.
DIA will support The Crewing Company through a rapid and ambitious programme of expansion designed to generate a huge increase in work for the company's registered pool of freelance production and post production talent while growing its portfolio of crewing and recruitment services to embrace new media related sectors and geographic locations.
"The experience, skills and contacts which DIA bring to the table will be invaluable to the continued growth of our business.", says TCC Joint MD Stuart Hatton. "We expect 2010 to be our busiest and most profitable year to date and are already planning how to grow our recruitment team to satisfy the expected level of new business."
