CASE STUDIESTeam Building, Off-Sites & Seasonal Parties

ERNST &YOUNGOff-Site / Team BuildingE&Y wanted a different approach to it’s normally dry quarterly town-hall of one of it’s divisions. Reflecting the culture and personality of the division’s MD, we created a South African-themed summer event at a quirky venue in Truman Brewery. Following a bespoke conference, we managed an afternoon of exciting team-building activities involving a Table Football Tournament for 100pax followed by a Learn The Haka workshop’. We also enlisted specialist South African caterers for a sumptuous Braai, before a renowned Shoreditch DJ managed the mood during the evening.

Thanks so much for the great organisation and making it a successful event. We have had good feedback and everyone enjoyed it tremendously!

DANONEOff-Site / Team BuildingWith the Water division requiring an alternative way to deliver information following an acquisition of an Italian firm, we set about creating a unique, fun, and interactive event experience.

We collaborated with the client and agreed an Italian-themed experience. We sourced a suitable venue for the large numbers, produced a bespoke live meeting, for 100, then delivered a teams-based Pizza-Making Workshop with competitions, prizes, and presentations of quarterly

Just wanted to say a big thank you for all your efforts yesterday – the event was a huge success and there’s been a real buzz about it in the office today. Our ‘best event yet someone’ said to me earlier!! Your team did a great job and you yourself definitely went the extra mile. We’ll definitely be in touch about future events.

McDONALDSTeam BuildingAs part of a global reward & recognition programme tying in with the London Olympics, we worked with the client & agency Kempster to produce a 6 week multi-event programme for 1000s of international staff from around the world.

We produced an interactive evening event programme fostering maximum networking to celebrate the arrival of attendees from each geography. Called ‘Celebrate’, we produced in the hotel a quintessentially English-themed party with an English garden bar & Pimm’s tent, garden games, & top DJ. A professional compare provided commentary as themed staff hosted tournaments for guests with prizes, presentations, & a photo booth linked

Thank you so much for all the hard work over the past few months. The client has been blown away by the effort and dedication of your team! Well done!

ALLEN & OVERYTeam Building

A&O market to 1000s of interns and graduates across the top universities each year within an ultra-competitive marketplace for the brightest university talent. To improve the networking and engagement component, we helped devise a quarterly strategy to increase both candidate acceptance levels and feedback scores.

We produced and delivered a tailored multi-event agenda across 3 cities for 1000s of attendees throughout the year. The focus was on interactivity, fun and something different. Bespoke activities including Pizza Pilgrimage, Bare-Foot Bowls, Ping-Pong Tournament, Segway Precision Driving, School Sports Day, & Ice Sculpting. Satisfaction scores for social engagement dramatically increased to 90%, up from 65% the year before.

We cannot thank you and your team enough for the fantastic creative and professional delivery of our graduate recruitment engagement programme!

ACCENTURESummer Party / Team BuildingAfter a period of rapid expansion and large client wins for a division of Accenture, there was an imperative for a celebratory event to congratulate and welcome new hires. Plus, a spot of social team-building to better integrate teams.

We produced a summer party in Hyde Park, complete with one of the best specialist South African Braai & BBQ caterers in London. A Pimm’s Fountain kept guests happy, and bare-foot lawn bowls was the activity of choice, complete with a teams tournament, along with croquet, boules, and giant games. Entertainment was provided by a brilliant jazz and soul pianist in a white marquee within the beautiful Hyde Park surrounds, overlooking the Serpentine Lake.

I was very impressed with how quickly you were able to set this up – it ticked all the boxes in terms of an interactive, inclusive and fun event. I won’t hesitate to recommend to other colleagues and friends.

Natasha – Manager

TESCOOff-Site / Team BuildingTesco required something completely different for their end of year company update. Requirements included a private venue (with a twist) for an all-day 150 person conference, full AV, breakout rooms, space for activities, and evening dinner and entertainment.

We produced the first ever conference to be held at Bounce, London. Dry hire meant sourcing of furniture, AV, tables, cutlery, and so on. We facilitated break-out sessions with professional speakers, then we managed a 150 person teams tournament complete with MC, hosts, umpires, Beat-The-Boss comps, exhibition matches, and a World Cup round-robin. Cocktails, pizzas and a DJ provided additional atmosphere.

Brilliant job! From the venue choice to the attention to details elsewhere, your team provided first-class service throughout the planning and at the event
