Global experience, Local Presence

We have a Global mind-set coupled with a local understanding whatever we do and wherever we do it. From being in some of the most challenging environments we have created, developed and managed many special client experiences. From Global Sporting and Cultural Events to more targeted and intimate incentives, conferences, events and functions PPG Events have done it. We listen to clients, bring in our extensive experiences, strategic partnerships, venue and product relationship to deliver the best experience. The client experience and engagement determines the success of the program on so many levels – whether it be, the Event or the iconic location or destination – we understand this. We view program and Event experience from a client and stakeholder viewpoint on many levels.
These include:

  • The principal aim of the program or events.
  • The ROI and delivery imperatives.
  • The most essential element being the ‘program guests’ and their engagement in the program and their connection back to the ultimate client and the purpose of the event.
