Our People
Ed Tranter
Managing Director
FrontRowSeat is part of 73 Media Ltd, an award-winning, large-scale events and experience provider founded by Ed Tranter, a multi-award-winning event specialist with over 20 years’ experience of delivering first class events all over the world.
Ed frequently consults for event organisers, publishers and associations. He is a conference speaker, regular industry awards judge and a member of the Association of Event Organisers board.
73 has been launched with partnership and giving back at its heart. That is why a proportion of the profits from every event are put back into a grass roots aid project within the city where the event takes place.
Ed is Married to Ali, with three children Toby, Freya and Molly. He loves Wasps rugby, guitars and his chickens…not always in that order.
Matt Symons
Principal Consultant
As a professional rugby player in the modern game, we have to attend our fair share of corporate events. As you can imagine, the experiences vary greatly.
I’ve often been standing there listening to another pre rehearsed Q&A, and wondered if it’s possible to break the mould, and create truly bespoke experiences, which the clients and players enjoy equally.
That’s why I am delighted about the shared vision that Ed and I have with FrontRowSeat, a different way of delivering events that works for everyone involved.
We’re incredibly excited to deliver experiences that we know will set the benchmark, and give myself welcome respite from mauling sessions, and the physio room.
