MRI were planning their EMEA Growth Kick Off a multi-day, high-stakes leadership event bringing teams together from across the region. The brief was complex and multi-layered: Identify a venue that could support plenary sessions, multiple breakouts, accommodation, and evening events all within a tight January window and then deliver the event seamlessly on-site.

A senior conference designed for clarity and connection. We supported the Employer Executive Conference with thoughtful delivery and calm, end-to-end execution.

We’d just won a small creative project for Autotrader and were invited to a chemistry workshop with senior leadership off the back of it. By the end of that meeting, equal parts pitch and performance, we’d landed the full-scale delivery of ATCON 2025. What followed was a full reimagining of their annual conference.

There wasn’t a traditional brief because this event had never existed before. Planit were engaged to help create, launch, and deliver a first-time education expo in the North, bringing together exhibitors, speakers, partners, and audiences under a brand-new format. The challenge wasn’t just delivery it was strategy, structure, flow, and credibility.

What BPS needed wasn’t a one-off fix or a shinier conference.
They needed to reimagine the structure behind their entire academic events programme, creating a consistent, scalable, and people-first way of working that would rebuild trust with members.

Auto Trader is a diverse business, with colleagues from a wide range of backgrounds, identities, and preferences. They wanted to create a single, all-employee holiday celebration that ensured everyone felt included, represented, and comfortable, while transforming their Manchester office into a vibrant and joyous space for celebration.

This wasn’t just a launch it was a statement of intent. ZEBOX were opening their UK hub in Manchester and needed an inaugural experience that reflected the scale of their global ambition while feeling rooted in place. The brief called for an event that embodied innovation, sustainability, and international relevance, without falling into corporate cliché.

Nestlé needed to create a distinctive identity and experience for their 2024 Confectionery Conference without creating a new brand. The conference had to remain true to Nestlé’s recently launched “Creating Little Smiles” platform, while still feeling fresh, energising, and meaningful for internal teams.
