Who we are

Charlie McCourt Co-founder & Director Charlie began his career by founding Equippd in 2013, pursuing a passion for technology and a belief in the positive impact it can have on residential sustainability and design.

Career highlights include being featured in the Telegraph Magazine in 2019 talking about immersive media spaces and partnering with homelessness charity Crisis in 2018 to design and deliver a 40-person pop-up cinema for guests to enjoy over the festive period.

He currently heads up Equippd's strategic and business development, exploring new opportunities and forging partnerships with the very best in the residential technology and design.
Matthew McCourt Co-founder & Director The solid foundations of Equippd are built on Matthew’s knowledge drawn from his wealth of experience in professional stage sound, lighting and music production.

He also spent more than a decade in the world of high-end motorsport, working with some of the UK's most technologically advanced teams such as McLaren and Lotus, tackling complex engineering challenges with laser-sharp focus. This grounding in technological innovation means Matthew is primed to lead and deliver all Equippd's projects, ensuring that the high-quality levels he has established are reproduced.
