ADC goes wild!
Event Identity Development + Event Management
How do you bring together a team that was assembled during the onset of the covid-19 pandemic? What creative language would bring together a team that has never met? These were the questions that were posed to us as a team by the planning team at ADC. 80% of the team members (360 people) had never met in person, all their interaction has been virtually over the last 24 months.
Given that this was an out-of-the-city event, we developed a theme that would resonate with the location, excite the team to show up and most important of all be memorable to them - "ADC in the wild". We developed an interactive and engaging program over the course of 3 days that entailed a strategy meeting, team-building exercises and a gala dinner that recognized the very best employees for FY21/22. To cap it all, the team held a successful event over the 3 days that culminated in the first-ever gala dinner and employee awards.
