THE
SOLUTION.


Audience
profiling

We utilised our pioneering audience profiling tool, AudienceDNA, to understand delegate personality, interests, and preferences, fostering maximize audience engagement.

Recognizing that 81% were introverted, we created safe environment for each audience to share their voice. Networking drove attendance; thus, we ensured ample opportunities for connections. Digital attendees experienced a novel, engaging virtual experience through seamless streaming and post-event content access.


Hybrid
format

To ensure an inclusive conference accessible to all, we created a truly hybrid event bridging the physical and digital worlds.

Our in-venue studio and virtual platforms streamed interviews, discussions, plenaries, and breakout rooms to remote attendees. Seamless interactions for speakers joining on stage and online, flexible attendance options between online and in-person sessions, and integration within HM Treasury’s digital infrastructure minimize barriers of attendance and enhance overall delegate engagement.


Cost-effective
solution

We worked to a budget funded by ticket sales, sponsorship and exhibition packages.

We handled sponsorship management, from prospectus design to pre-sales, to post-event follow up. We developed a wide variety of physical and digital sponsorship packages and successfully secured sponsors who had visions aligned with the GFF’s 2023 strategy, with bespoke offers aligned to individual sponsors’ objectives and KPIs.
