What does it take to build a thriving engineering business from a shed with a desk, a kettle, and sheer determination?
In this episode of the WA Leaders Podcast, Charlie Gunningham speaks with Kelvin King, founder of Mechanical Equipment Group (MEG), about his journey from launching a business at 27 to leading five companies across Australia’s mining, manufacturing, wastewater, agriculture, and healthcare sectors.
Kelvin shares the lessons that shaped MEG’s growth, servant leadership, learning from failure, investing in systems, and putting people first. He also reflects on the realities of entrepreneurship, balancing family life, and why purpose matters more than profit in building something that lasts.
A practical, inspiring conversation for entrepreneurs, business owners, and emerging leaders.
