Having been in business for over two decades, our website has effectively showcased our work. However, it's been more than five years since we last made any significant updates. This past month, we undertook the task of revamping it. Given the evolution within our industry and our company structure, the old website felt dated, reflecting assets from a time when our team was much larger.
So it's finally 2024 and we had a whirlwind of a year in 2023. We didn't post too much on our blog mostly because of just being busy and not focusing enough of our time on it. So here's a wrap up of the last year.
The marketing team of Allianz engaged with us for their wonderful client reception at the venerable Ferry Building. Additionally, we were on the show floor at Riskworld interviewing their employees on video on how they support their clients in a risky world and how nice it was to be back in-person at these live events.
We always enjoy the fact that we get to experience so many different types of events and often get to see and do things we may otherwise have never gotten the chance to experience […]
With so many corporate clients on our roster, it's always a nice change0up when we work with some of our favorite non-profits such as the World Wildlife Foundation. We had the chance to document one of their important events in NYC with regards to the challenges of plastic waste in the world.
We're excited to be working again with one of the industry leaders in large production management, Opus Agency. We've worked with them for many years prior to the pandemic and was grateful that we were about to serve them on a year-long engagement for Amazon Web Services. AWS hosts developer summits in numerous metropolitan cities and worked directly with us to manage their photo needs in all those markets.
Like the drinking buddy from Cheers, we're ecstatic to welcome back Norm (as in Normalcy!) in our industry. Of course, we're still crossing our fingers that there won't be another COVID variant that makes use take four steps backwards but with the volume of work we're doing for our old time clients, we expect that the worst is behind us!
It was an early morning as we were in Mountain View, CA for the opening bell at 6:30AM PST. But the day started even earlier as staff members were in the building even hours before and there was plenty of buzz to go around. Produced by Ethos Event Collective, Coursera's normal office space was transformed and set up perfectly for a live recording.
This was the prevailing question asked throughout Event Manager Blog's virtual conference last week, "The Future of the Event Industry 2021 Outlook". Moderated by EventMB's Founder and former Editor-in-Chief, Julius Solaris, the virtual event brought together many top industry leaders in various sectors as speakers to discuss the current state of the event industry and the many developments that has occurred consequentially from the pandemic-ridden year.
As we’ve all seen, events have been cancelled at an alarming rate over concern of the virus spreading exponentially. Organizers have canceled SXSW, many other festivals such as Coachella have either canceled or postponed their events. Huge annual conferences have been shut down altogether like E3, Facebook’s F8, the Game Developers Conference, Google’s Cloud Next, and many more.
