FAQS

Do you provide the AV equipment, or do we need to rent it?

We operate as your dedicated technical director and client advocate. Instead of pushing our own equipment, we partner with the best local AV rental houses to source exactly what your event needs. This allows us to audit and negotiate the vendor budgets to protect you from inflated invoices and ensure you only pay for what is necessary.

What size and type of events do you handle?

We specialize in corporate events such as summits, product launches, and training seminars, typically managing professional setups for audiences between 50 and 1,000 attendees.

Can you help with live streaming and hybrid events?

Absolutely. The permanent implementation of streaming video is crucial for modern events. We provide specialized technical teams to manage the broadcast infrastructure, ensuring a high production value stream rather than just a basic webcam transmission.

How does your pricing work?

We offer a highly adaptable, modular service model. Clients usually begin with a core pre-event consultation module. From there, you can easily add specific services like live show-calling, webcasting, post-event video animation, and photography.

Why do we need a technical director if we already have an event planner?

General event planners typically focus on venue selection, aesthetics, and catering. We serve as your technical bridge, translating your brand's vision into precise hardware needs and resolving real-time technical hurdles so your team can focus entirely on networking and brand management.
