A people-first, employee-owned agency
Made the Sunday Times Best Places to Work list
Culture isn’t just a buzzword, it’s our superpower. Being on the Sunday Times Best Places to Work list, for the 3rd year in a row proves it.
8 promotions & 7 new team members
Growth matters here. We celebrated 8 well-earned promotions and welcomed 7 new stars to the squad. More talent = more creativity + better event experiences delivered.
New business model: SLT → OKR teams
2025 was transformational. We ditched the old senior leadership structure for OKR-driven teams; giving everyone a voice, ownership, and influence. Employee ownership in action, delivering even better outcomes for our clients.
Leading the conversation in event strategy & audience insight
4 thought leadership events & webinars
We hosted 2 exclusive networking events and 2 live webinars diving into the trends shaping the future of events. These sessions unpacked what audiences expect, and how to make your brand experiences stick with them for the long run.
3 audience insight reports published
Our insights decode audience behaviour, motivations, and expectations, so brands can create events that resonate, not just impress. Explore our full library of Event Downloads.
Community, collaboration & industry impact

From tech showcases to sustainability forums, we were there, learning, sharing and showing up in the event industry.
Partnering with BMF for a Charity Dragon Boat Race
We joined forces with BMF to host a charity dragon boat race, raising funds for Kisima School in Kenya, a cause we’ve proudly sponsored and supported for 8 years. It was a day of energy, teamwork, and real-life impact.
