conferencing

It’s not effective conferences that inspire people. It’s extraordinary ones.

Here at Bray Leino, we create live events the way we create ad campaigns, with strategic thinking built on audience insights, shaped into big ideas. We’ve delivered more than 100 events in the last 18 months alone, engaging groups from 5 to 1000, using every resource from simple graphics to film-making.

The right choice

With the success of our 2011 conference for Oasis Dental Care as the benchmark, the Bray Leino conferencing team had to exceed expectations in 2012.

Choosing the right venue was key and the Telford International Centre provided the ideal setting. Our team then set to work launching the new Oasis message of ‘choice’.

We managed every detail of the process, from 720 on-site delegate check-ins, to room dressing and full AV delivered by our in-house film cameraman and photographer. We allocated accommodation and transport for over 600 delegates. And not forgetting the fun stuff, we applied our impeccable musical taste to choosing the band (which earned us much praise from our client).

The ‘choice’ idea worked across all collateral: banners, name badges, table cards, awards, lanyards, sashes, presentation slides, registration board, welcome signs, delegate bags and the seating plan.

Oasis allocated guest speaker sessions to select affiliates and we were instrumental in managing delegate engagment. What’s more we built, equipped and helped to manage stands for no less than 34 other event exhibitors.

Oasis COO, David Leatherbarrow commented: “The two days ran without a glitch, completely stress free from a client point of view, with the entire team working tirelessly to ensure that everything we required was delivered on time all the time, without fuss or hassle.”

Redefining high performance

Our Castrol client came to us to help relaunch its High Performance Industrial Lubricant products to a global audience.

Our response brought together not only 150 Castrol delegates but also, for the first time, 10 key distributors too. We brought them together for a three-day conference in Ascot to explore how Castrol Industrial could ‘outperform the competition’ and double the size of their high performance lubricants business within five years. more

Outdoor (and indoor) adventure

We recently worked on our sixth consecutive Timberland event: the Fall 2012 Brand Meeting. It’s a 5-day meet-up in Portugal for 300 of Timberland’s key distributors.

We created all the sets and stands and dealt with the lighting and AV for the duration, which included opening presentations, opening and closing gala dinners, fashion shows and entertainment. We also designed the branding for the entire event, and dealt with the logistics and transportation of three artic lorries of product and equipment. more

Harbouring a conference

We recently produced a three-day event in Cork which BP Castrol Marine used to focus the business on the immediate future and onwards to 2020.

At the three-day event in Cork (appropriately, the world’s second largest natural harbour), we managed the conference production from start to finish with a creative look and feel which spanned all conference materials and post-conference comms.

This is the way

When our client, Oasis Dental Care, came to us to in May, they gave us a pretty expansive brief for their national conference. They wanted to use the event to engage with their whole team and demonstrate their commitment as an employer. And our remit included every aspect of the conference, from event management through to branding. more

World class

We used the backdrop of the FIFA 2010 World CupTM to bring together 65 of Castrol’s mission-critical global distributors. We delivered Castrol’s Ambassador Club – a huge five-day event in South Africa – during the football tournament.

We created the Club website and the materials to engage the high-end delegates. This included sending invitations, creating delegate books, designing the working sessions, and building sets to organizing the gala dinner. more

Fashioning climate conversations

We worked with Timberland on its conference at Heathrow. To evoke climate change conversations, we created three statues made entirely from recycled cardboard, plastic and cans, highlighting key messages for the client about their environmental credentials.
We also created films: the journey of the boat shoe and a film on recycling. Two large show areas incorporated props and sounds and smells to create the feeling of being on the beach for the boat shoe graphic. In all, a story brought creatively to life.

We also worked with Timberland on a fashion show in Scotland. Set in St Andrews, we built all the set rooms and managed logistics, as well as converting a nearby barn into a stunning venue to hold the show. We got so hands-on at one point the Account Director was helping to dress the models! A piper accompanied guests into the candle-lit barn where a captivating show was put on.
