From the age of 16, Glenn van Eck was involvedwith Magnetic Storm, initially by assisting his brother with the setting up and de-rigging of AV equipment and thereafter maintenance of equipment.
Aged 20, he started a gardening service in my second year of University, and five years later sold the business, to buy Magnetic Storm. Fast forward to today and he is still at the helm of the business, and has grown a two-man disco to a full-service event and tech company with offices in Port Elizabeth and Cape Town, servicing the entire country.
