Financial Services ‘Superhero’ Conference

An annual staff conference and awards gala night delivered for our client in the Financial Services industry. The objective for the event was to create a conference and awards function that would provide staff with the opportunity to assess their year in review, celebrate the staff achievements over the previous year and to launch the targeted corporate goals for the coming year. The conference was attended by over 400 employees, leaders and stakeholders.

The Challenge

The challenge was to develop the central concept for the event and creatively produce the elements to bring the concept to life both on time and on budget.

The solution

The creative solutions were multifaceted for the conference and awards gala.

  • We developed the conference theme: BEYOND ALL LIMITS – “Superheroes”.
    The Superhero theme was launched via the Event Opener which starred the leadership team. We styled the stage set and directed the Opener which included the leaders dressed as individual superheroes including the characters – Wonder Woman, Thor, and Hulk. The theme was developed via brainstorming sessions in-house, research and consultation with our client.
  • We carried the theme through to the team building exercises. We developed a highly interactive team building program and created custom made superhero masks for each team and superhero themed activities.
  • One of the critical event elements was the delivery of the i. Event Opener and ii. Awards Dinner Opener which were 10 minute stage productions carefully scripted, designed and crafted with staff dressed as characters, entertainers incorporated and minute-by-minute run sheet of stage activity. Adding to the ‘wow factor’ of the conference awards event, the awards dinner opener included a carefully crafted floor and aerial acrobatic superhero themed scene at Sydney Town Hall’s Centennial Hall. We arranged for the CEO to enter the room via scissor lift!
