Alan Wick’s story begins with rebellion: a kid who hated school, fell in love with drumming, and genuinely believed his band was headed for stardom. When the record deal never came, he spotted a different opportunity: supplying sound equipment to other musicians. A move that quietly set the course for the rest of his career.
What followed was a remarkable arc. Alan became a live sound-engineer for The Jam, then founded Turbosound, the audio company that went on to serve acts from Pink Floyd to Ella Fitzgerald and even win a Queen’s Award for Export. Later, after selling (and eventually buying back) the business, he shifted into a new chapter: helping founders build companies with purpose, creativity, and heart.
Today, Alan works as a coach and advisor to entrepreneurs, driven not by scale for its own sake but by the belief that business can be a vehicle for meaning. A perspective shaped by decades in music, technology, and a life-altering health scare that reshaped what success really means to him.
Jon Kaye is one of the co-founders of Do Radio and the presenter of Tomorrow’s World show, the station’s weekly technology show. His work sits at the intersection of creativity, tech, and what it really means to feel connected in a world overflowing with content.
Jon was previously in the private equity industry before founding his own private equity fund and then, a decade later, realising that PE wasn't what he wanted to do. He dropped out, travelled around the world with his family and discovered creativity (and craft beer).
Through Do Radio, he’s helping build a space that trades scale for depth, presence, and humanity. A station designed to make people feel seen, heard, and a little less alone.
He’s also a music producer and creative who believes that the imperfect bits are where the truth usually lives.
