Helping knowledge driven organisations achieve sustainable success
Associations and business events are knowledge exchange platforms with the potential to shape our world.
Achieving this impact requires the collaboration of industry experts, understanding diverse viewpoints, and constructing a solid course of action.
Helping people make the right decisions, design the right programmes, and send the right messages – at the right time – is what we do.

Our values
Curiosity
We dive deep to understand dynamics within your sector and how they impact your people, organisation and business objectives.
Transparency
We believe in telling the truth, even when it hurts. We would rather refuse a project than promise a fantasy.
Leadership
We dare to ask questions and believe in challenging assumptions. We want to make the difference that justifies your investment.
Expertise
We build on our experience to fuse strategy with project implementation. We know it is results that matter.
Speed to market
Your leaders work directly with our partners, enabling fast decisions and avoiding diluting the vision through layers of administration.
Fair budgets
Our fees are based on clearly scoped, phased projects so you can evaluate progress vs investment. Our passion and dedication are included in the price, it’s the only way we work.
Connect with the team
We gained our experience in boardrooms, on tradeshow floors, in running management service companies.
We partner with every client throughout the process, offering ongoing advice and continuously monitoring for opportunity and risk.
