    The service

    What producing a corporate event includes, and when it pays off

    A corporate event is the occasion a company organises for its team, its clients or its shareholders: a convention, a congress, a board meeting, a gala or an open day. Our part is all the physical material that gives it shape: stage backdrop, signage for entrances and rooms, table materials, accreditations and brand elements. We plan it from the event's programme, produce it in our workshop, and install and remove it with our own team.

    Hiring a single supplier pays off above all in three situations: when the event has many small pieces with different deadlines, when it's held in a rented venue with installation restrictions, and when the programme is going to change right up to the last day. In those cases coordinating several suppliers ends up costing more, in time and in mistakes, than the production itself.

    If what you need is a presence at a trade fair venue rather than an event of your own, what you're looking for is trade fair stands. We cover the entry photocall of a gala under photocalls and press walls, and if the event is a product launch or the opening of a venue, under launches and openings. The whole section is under event graphic production.

    Type of event

    Every event needs
    different materials

    A shareholders' meeting and a sales convention have almost nothing in common: the tone changes, the materials change, the installation time changes, and even who makes the decisions changes. These are the events we produce for.

    Conventions and kick-offs

    The internal event of the year. Stage backdrop, room signage, accreditations, table materials and message-reinforcing elements. It's decided at short notice and changes right up to the last day, so we work with that in mind from the start.

    Congresses and conferences

    Several simultaneous spaces and people who don't know the building. Here signage rules: entrance directory, wayfinding between rooms, speaker identification and sponsor area.

    Board meetings and institutional events

    A sober, tightly scripted format. Presidential table backdrop, lectern, discreet signage and carefully finished printed materials. The margin for error is minimal because press is often present.

    Galas and award ceremonies

    The materials have to work on camera and on video, not just live. Stage backdrops, entry photocall and table elements designed with how they'll look on screen in mind.

    Open days

    Guided tours of your own facilities: route signage, explanatory panels and safety. Usually involves installing in a space that's still operating.

    Training and team building

    Smaller-format events with a tighter budget, using materials that can be reused between editions: roll-ups, lightweight panels and generic signage that lasts the whole season.

    Materials and finishes

    Materials, systems
    and on-site installation

    At an event, materials are installed once and seen for a few hours. Everything has to be designed to go up fast, hold without touch-ups, and come down without a trace.

    How we work

    From the event script
    to the day's installation

    1. Step 01

      Event script and site visit

      We need the programme, the capacity and the attendee's route. We visit the venue to take measurements, see the actual lighting, and check how the materials get in.

    2. Step 02

      Item proposal and schedule

      We give you the full list of materials with their size, location and artwork deadline. Every piece has its own cut-off date — there's no single global deadline.

    3. Step 03

      Production and quality control

      We produce in our workshop with colour checks and a trial assembly of the critical pieces, such as stage backdrops and structures.

    4. Step 04

      Installation, event and removal

      We install within the window the venue allows, stay through the event if you need us to, and remove everything afterwards without leaving marks.

    What material gets reused and what expires

    The most direct way to cut the cost of a corporate event from the second edition onward is to separate, right from the design stage, what's permanent from what's dated. This is the rule we apply piece by piece.

    Reuse depends on the condition of the material after each event and how it's stored between editions.

    How we calculate the price of a corporate event

    There's no single price per event, because two conventions with the same capacity can need completely different materials. What we do is an itemised quote: each element with its size, material, quantity and price. Installation, on-site support during the event if you need it, and removal appear separately.

    That way you can decide what to cut if the total goes beyond what was planned, and when a last-minute change comes up you know exactly how much that extra piece costs, without having to renegotiate the whole quote.

    Send us the programme and we'll break it down for you

    What moves the price most

    • Number of pieces and formatA stage backdrop and four roll-ups is not the same as the full signage for a congress with several rooms.
    • Reusable or single-use materialStructures cost more the first time and much less from the second edition onward.
    • TimelineWith margin, production runs in the most efficient order; in a rush, we have to prioritise and reserve production slots.
    • Venue and installation windowAccess, freight lifts, available hours and the venue's anchoring restrictions.
    • Presence during the eventWhether we stay for changes between sessions or only install and remove.

    Frequently asked questions

    We'll answer your questions

    What people ask us before booking the production of a corporate event: timelines, installation, material reuse and how billing works.

    Can't find your question?

    Tell us about your event

    How much notice do you need?

    Three or four weeks is comfortable — enough to design without rushing, produce with margin, and leave room for a last-minute change. But corporate events rarely work that way: the programme usually closes late, and a sponsor or a message change often turns up just days before. We work with that assumption built in. With 72 hours we can produce most of our standard materials, and with less too, though at that point we have to prioritise which pieces are essential. What we never do is accept a date we know we can't meet: if we can't make it, we say so on the first call.

    Are you on site on the day of the event?

    Yes, and for us that's what sets this work apart from a print shop's. We install with our own team within whatever window the venue allows and, if you need us to, we stay through the event. For events with several rooms or configuration changes between sessions, it's practically essential, because something always needs moving. And if something unexpected comes up, whoever solves it is the same person who installed it, not someone arriving without knowledge of the project. This support is spelled out in the quote so you know exactly what's included.

    Can you produce on very tight notice?

    Yes, within reason and being upfront about what's possible and what isn't. With 72 hours we can produce roll-ups, room signage, vinyls, printed materials and standard-size fabric backdrops. With 24 or 48 hours quite a lot of printed material can still be done, but that rules out structures that need workshop fabrication or materials that have to be ordered in. What helps most when time is tight is letting us know even before the artwork is finalised: by reserving production and materials we can start the moment the file arrives, instead of starting the clock from zero.

    Do you work with the venue or with the agency?

    With whoever is needed, and often with all three at once. We're used to coordinating with event agencies, audiovisual production companies and the venue's technical manager. What we always ask is that it's clear who has the final say, because in events the biggest risk isn't technical but in the approval chain: artwork signed off by three different, contradictory people is what makes a piece arrive late. If you come to us through an agency, we work with their templates and brand guidelines without any issue.

    What materials can be reused for the next event?

    Quite a lot more than is usually taken advantage of. Tensioned fabric structures, roll-ups and sign holders with interchangeable inserts are reusable for years — only the graphic changes. Generic signage for rooms, restrooms and entrances lasts a whole season if it's designed without specific dates or names. What doesn't get reused is anything carrying the date, that year's slogan or the sponsor list. If you run several events a year, it's worth designing from the outset to separate what's permanent from what expires; it saves a fair amount of budget from the second event onward.

    Do you handle installation at the venue?

    Yes, with our own team. We visit the venue beforehand to check three things that cause a lot of trouble when overlooked: where materials come in and whether there's a freight lift and what size, what the real installation time window is, and what can and can't be touched on the walls and floor. Rented venues and hotels often have strict anchoring restrictions, so we work with self-supporting systems and adhesives that come off without residue. Once the event is over we remove all the materials and leave the venue as we found it.

    How is an event with many items billed?

    With an itemised quote, not a single overall figure. Each element appears with its size, material, quantity and price, with installation, on-site support during the event, and removal listed separately. We do it this way for two practical reasons: it lets you decide what to cut if the budget falls short, and when a last-minute change comes up you know exactly how much that extra piece costs without renegotiating the whole quote.

    What do you need to get started?

    The event programme, the expected capacity, the venue and the date, and your brand files. With the programme we can see the route the attendee follows and what materials are needed at each point, which is where the item list comes from. If you don't have the programme finalised yet, we start with whatever won't change: stage backdrop, entrance signage and brand elements. Items with variable content, like the speaker list or sponsors, are left for last with a clear cut-off date.

    Do you manufacture in-house or outsource?

    We manufacture at our facility on Passatge la Carola, 2, in Cabrera de Mar, and install with our own team. We don't outsource either. In events this matters more than in any other kind of work, because when the date can't move you can't depend on a third party's schedule, or on someone telling you the problem is the other supplier's fault. You have a single point of contact from the first sketch until teardown, and that same person is reachable on the day of the event.

    Where do you manufacture and install?

    We manufacture in Barcelona, at our workshop in Cabrera de Mar, and install across Spain with our own team. That holds true whether it's a single event or a calendar of events spread across several cities: the team and the installation approach don't change depending on where the event falls. We've been doing this for more than 32 years, and when a project calls for a solution that isn't ours, we say so instead of forcing it.
