Which event is special? Or how to transform an ordinary ‘occasion’ into “special” and worthy event?
Those are just two of the questions that we often ask ourselves or seek answers for in our work.
At Apeiron, when we take the role of event consultants, we know that we will do the traditional things in an untraditional way. During negotiations process and later brainstorming, our heads come up with so many ideas that we hardly can evaluate their pluses and minuses. Some of the ideas are so weird that we just smile at them and send them to our ‘Unrealizable’ column.
But when you seek the Idea you have to unleash your imagination and not set barriers from the very beginning.
According to us, every boring award ceremony, some annual cocktail or the opening of an established and popular event can be turned ’special’.
The event just has to carry with it some special accent. Something to be remembered for. Do you remember the last event that gave you the chills? Share it with us…
We all search for new ideas even in things that are done before.
We’d like to share with you one of the many YouTube clips that inspired us for a conception of one forthcoming event.
