Connect your people, maintain your culture.
Too many workshops, meetings, conferences and other events focus on trying to connect those in ‘presentation’ mode with an audience. This is an old and tired way of working, which significantly increases the chance of fatigue in an online world and breaks down your culture by increasing the digital divide between your people.
The magic comes when you flip the coin, put the focus on your participants and design with an intention of creating purposeful connection, communication and collaboration between participants.
Connection to build trust, transparency and vulnerability.
Communication to generate dialogue, insight and understanding.
Collaboration to trigger action, commitment and ownership.
Using this framework you can transform your business-critical meetings, workshops, company-wide learning events and conferences into participative, purposeful experiences that generate amazing levels of engagement and contribution - even if it’s online.
Connect your people and maintain your meeting and events culture in an online world.
How we make the magic happen.
We do this using cutting edge event design and exciting technology to increase engagement and build trust between participants.
Every workshop, event or meeting is different, however, some common themes are in play:
A planning phase to create a clear vision and set of objectives for your event.
A design phase focusing on emotion, the 5 human senses and the 3Cs.
A finalisation phase, agreeing all activities, tools, technology and visuals.
A training phase, to embed this thinking into your in-house team.
A 3C coaching phase for event speakers and facilitators.
Rich visual images created live on the day, bringing the themes to the fore.
Beautiful video productions to tell the story of your day, your outputs and your most important commitments.

Who we are…
Some years ago as individual consultants, we were brought into an ambitious, wide-ranging project to help design, facilitate, narrate and tell the story of a 2-day immersive personal development experience for 250 young folks out in the middle east.
The event was a huge success and forged many new relationships across many people, not least us three - Matt, Chris and Tony.
Since that day, we’ve worked on numerous events together and apart, both in real life and online, pushing the boundaries of what is possible with participative design, visual artistry and the power of storytelling. We decided to come together as a formal team and 3C events was formed.
Matt heads up the overall event strategy and consulting arm. He’s also a public speaking and communication coach, which comes in handy for events. He has worked with clients ranging from Virgin to O2, through to Ofwat and LEO Learning.
Chris heads up the team at Live Illustration and is responsible for visual storytelling and artistry - he can literally draw what a group of people are thinking. It’s pretty amazing. His clients including the BBC, Cola and Microsoft.
Tony, from The Cell Productions is responsible for video, animation, storyline and media - he’s the one who knows how to capture what it is to connect as a human being. His clients include Haven House Hospice, Land Rover, LEO Learning and many more.
In the wings, we have theatre troupes, experience design consultants, media production houses, facilitators, coaches and behaviour change consultants, to list just a few.
Our goal is simple: to bring your people together in a purposeful, authentic, connected and human way. This is where the magic happens.
Just like it did with us when we first met.

We’re a creative bunch and we can bring ideas to the table right away to shift the way your people connect in meetings, workshop and events.
