GLOBAL: Creative Technology Group is set for a leadership transition as founder and CEO Graham Andrews prepares to step away from day-to-day leadership at the end of 2026, following the company’s 40th anniversary year. Tom See will join Creative Technology Group as President on September 14 and assume leadership of the global live events business on January 1, 2027. See joins from Live Nation Entertainment, where he most recently served as Chief Strategy Officer for Live Nation International Venues.

His previous roles include President of Live Nation Venues, where he led a hospitality operation spanning more than 120 venues, 15,000 events and more than 25 million fans annually, supported by more than 30,000 employees. From 2015 to 2021, he served as President of Live Nation Amphitheaters, overseeing facilities, operations and marketing across more than 50 amphitheaters.

“I have tremendous respect for Graham and the legacy he’s built at Creative Technology. What he and the team have created is incredibly special—a company with world-class capabilities, deep client relationships and a culture built around delivering at the highest level. I’m grateful for the opportunity to build on that foundation and excited about what we can accomplish together in the next chapter of CT’s growth,” said See.

Andrews will join the NEP Group Board as a non-executive director, also effective January 1, 2027, allowing NEP to retain his experience and perspective as Creative Technology enters its next phase.

“Graham is an entrepreneur at heart with keen insight into what customers want, so it’s no surprise that Creative Technology is now celebrating an incredible milestone year—an amazing achievement,” said NEP Group CEO Martin Stewart. “I’m grateful for Graham’s leadership and the legacy he leaves. I couldn’t be more pleased that we’ll continue to benefit from his perspective as a Board member next year.”

Reflecting on the transition, Andrews said the decision represents the leadership succession he envisioned when he founded Creative Technology 40 years ago. “When I founded Creative Technology 40 years ago, I wasn’t sure where it would take me—but I always knew that, if we were successful, it would be important to develop leaders who, at the right moment, could take our company to the next level. This is that moment, for me personally and for CT.”

“I’ve been honoured to serve the organization and our people,” he added. “I’m grateful to our CT employees who have demonstrated their commitment, resilience, and loyalty since the day we started. It’s who we are as a company—and I’m confident they will continue to flourish and develop under Tom’s leadership.”

Creative Technology Group formally celebrates its 40th anniversary on September 23, 2026.
