Leadership
Founded by Luke Griffin.
GCDS was founded by Luke Griffin, who has spent over 25 years connecting people, projects and purpose across the events, exhibitions and partnerships landscape.
Working locally and internationally, Luke brings a blend of experience, compassion and professionalism to every project — from grassroots initiatives to global ventures. His philosophy is simple: real progress happens when the right people come together around a shared goal.
Client Perspective
"GCDS didn't hand us a strategy — they built one with us. Two years on, the operating model they helped us design is still the reason we're growing."
