In the 1950s, IKEA changed how the world furnishes its homes. They designed the waste out.
Flat-pack meant less material and less space in the lorry, so better furniture reached more people for less.
Nobody called it sustainability. It was just better.
We've done the same for events.
We're pioneers of circular event design.
Modular systems, used globally, so nothing gets built once and binned. Our own workshop and R&D lab in west London. 127 global delivery partners, so less gets shipped and the money stays in the local economy. A palette of 203 sustainable materials we built ourselves. And TIM, our award-winning in-house event impact tech, on every event.
The result? Powerful, engaging events that cost less, take up less of your team's time and back up your own sustainability targets.
Anything else is off brand.
Certified B Corp. EcoVadis Gold.
Trusted by Red Bull, Chanel, Pernod Ricard and CBRE.
Because sustainable events are better events.

We understand the true value of sustainable events
Sustainable events don’t just benefit people and the planet, they’re a smart business move. With over 100 years of combined industry experience, we know how to turn sustainability into a strategic advantage, creating authentic connections that resonate with today’s audiences.
[01]
Events are booming
Events are the most powerful form of communication, as well as the most effective kind of marketing. But there’s an innovation gap in our industry that needs to be closed, and as the specialists in this space we are proudly leading the charge.
[02]
Taking the lead
In the absence of consistent leadership, the world is looking to businesses to light the way and embrace meaningful change for the greater good. Get it right, and the consumers won’t forget it.
[03]
Embracing the opportunity
Sustainability doesn’t stifle innovation, it’s a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity for businesses ready to embrace it and get it right. For brands committed to sustainable practices, events offer a powerful and authentic way to connect with their audience and no other agency has more expertise in designing and delivering this than us.
