STORY

BELIEFS


We are not an agency with ready-made answers. Instead, we are a team of profesional event strategies and planners who know better, who care, and who try harder than most. Together, we design experiences from concept to implementation.


It is fair to say that we have a genuine 'go above and beyond' customer service ethos, but we are also a hugely unassuming organisation. This meantality fuels our hunger to be the best, and thus serves you as well as us.


It is why we apply an almost forensic attention to detail in our proposals and the execution of our events. It is why we are agile, anticipating potential obstacle and diffusing them before they turn into real problems.

Strategically and commercialy, we know exactly where we want to be. We know, because we're on our way to get there.


But the one thing that matters most for you as our client, partner or collaborator is that we aim to be the very best. The chance you give us we treat as the only one.

What our
clients are
saying

UK Conference

Activate are a real example of a high-performing team. Activate coordinated both the physical room and virtual experiences and did an outstanding job both in terms of process and end result.

Global Clinical Symposium

Senior management have commented that this is one of the best events we’ve ever done. We’ve never worked with an agency that was so ‘on the ball.’

Global, US & European Leadership Conference Series

Quite how you kept track of three separate, back-to-back events with separate audiences, agendas (and in one case, 32 simultaneous breakouts!) and all their wide-ranging requirements is completely beyond me, but somehow you did it and it was truly brilliant. Thank you!

Clinical Investigator Meeting

This was a really important group of customers for us and they were extremely impressed by the professionalism of the whole meeting and Activate played a crucial role in achieving that outcome.

European Product Launch

Activate share the same passion and concern for our events as we do and they take ownership and responsibility for them. They are so professional and friendly, always coming up with suggestions and ideas whilst remaining very, very calming – even when we’re not!

Global Virtual Event

I wanted to thank you for the fantastic support and dedication you showed in making our event such a success. I have heard nothing but praise from the delegates, so you can be very proud of what we achieved.

European Sales & Marketing Conference

This was an amazing execution of a European conference – great planning, impressive creativity and with flexibility to accommodate our demands. Superb meeting, possibly the best we have ever held, and Activate deserve the majority of the credit.

Activate operate at the pinnacle of event complexity where compliance, logistics, budget and time pressures are the norm.

Let’s think. While you may be happy to stand still, your competitors are racing ahead, they’re innovating, the market conditions are changing, technology is evolving, your pool of talent is reducing, your reserves of new prospects and clients are dying and the commercial model starts to make less sense. Standing still and doing nothing is clearly not an option.
