STORY

BELIEFS


We are not an agency with ready-made answers. Instead, we are a team of professional event strategists 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 mentality 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 obstacles 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.

This project uniquely combined the celebration and achievement of major business milestones, together with a renewed commitment by the entire organisation in pursuit of their next great ambition.  That this project involved over 950 people from across Europe and included a Guinness World Record attempt (successfully achieved!), are just two illustrative examples of the complex challenge that we embraced in creating this truly unique experience for our client.

With our roots in global LIVE events, you will find it reassuring to see us in action setting the stage for your event. The same production and logistical expertise you see here is scaled to conceptualise and deliver all events, from live to hybrid and virtual. #ActivateEvents

VIRTUAL is now universally accepted as an essential communications tool that is here to stay.  We are continually investing in the development of superior technology solutions as a way of connecting individuals and teams and effecting internal and external communication and collaboration. Click to view a short demo video of our 3D immersive environment within the Activate Virtual Platform. #ActivateEvents

Our expertise is not just event delivery but also the essential crafting of a clear strategy and purpose for your event and the effective communication of your message in ways that resonate with your audience and engage their emotion and intellect.  This video illustrates how we supported a client with the design, development and launch of a 5-year strategy to remodel and refocus their entire business to achieve ambitious commercial goals. #ActivateEvents

What our
clients are
saying

European All Hands Meeting

Their dedicated team were focused, friendly, professional, and demonstrated an exceptional eye for detail. They delivered a flawless and magnificent event, but most of all they demonstrated that they really cared about our people, the purpose of our event and its importance to our business and they genuinely became an extension of our own team.

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.
