We have had a great year here in Italy working with UK and worldwide clients as part of their production team. We have been sourcing, hiring, and managing a range of suppliers here in Italy for events throughout the year with our largest event being in June.

As I have said previously, we are getting a growing number of contacts for projects here in Italy from all over the world. It’s great to be able to help incoming teams and help them navigate around the curve balls that can appear out of nowhere here, it makes going to a project something to look forward to, knowing our team will make a difference.

· Office printers for all locations, including getting last minute documents printed and collated for an exhibition stand.

· One specifically Italian requirement for example was a Mosquito spray company. It is not common knowledge outside Italy, but Milan has a massive summer issue with Mosquitos, so it is a requirement for any outdoor events to have the spaces sprayed at least a week before the event and in some cases, an on site presence during your event.

· Outdoor planting over 100 trees and plants, rocks and dressing.

· Waste management, including dealing with all Italian paperwork to comply with local regulations.

As you can see quite an extensive list.

With feedback from clients though, the most important item to them, once the show detail is sorted, is the onsite presence we provide, giving them peace of mind, knowing we have the contacts and the ability to source last minute requests for their ever-evolving event.

We are always looking for projects to be part of so when in Rome!
