ORANGEDOOR VISITS DRUPA 2024

Dusseldorf once again played host to drupa – the world’s largest printing exhibition – in May and June; the first time the show has been held in person for many years, due to covid lockdowns in 2020.??

This year, OrangeDoor’s drupa delegation included our COO, Andrew and PR manager, Catherine. Drupa is a truly extraordinary exploration of all the latest advances in print – halls and halls and halls of game-changing innovations. Click here to check out what we consider to be the highlights of this amazing global event.

MEANWHILE...OVER IN HANNOVER

May also saw a large contingent of the OrangeDoor team decamp to Hannover to build and deliver ServiceNow’s exhibition stand at Hannover Messe – the world’s leading industrial trade fair.

ServiceNow and OrangeDoor’s highly collaborative and creative approach helped us collectively exceed our key objectives, including a sensational 50% increase in sales leads, a 37% increase in unique on-stand demonstrations as well as a 50% increase in meeting room space on the stand. A phenomenal result!

Sustainability was also a key component of ServiceNow’s brief to align with its core brand values. This was a challenge we embraced, using our B Corp experience and network to design a stand that was 75% recyclable; all without compromising on creativity, vibrancy or accessibility.

From ‘Bee's Knees’ cocktails using honey from a local Hanover bee farm to edible coffee and martini cups, local and more sustainable solutions were employed wherever possible to minimise environmental impact.

PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES

In July, our CEO, Elizabeth Heron was selected as one of the inaugural members of ‘CN Agency100 for 2024-25’. This prestigious group , curated by Conference News, brings together influential event industry professionals from across the UK and Ireland.

We’re incredibly proud that Elizabeth has been recognised for her contribution to the industry, but we also know that great leaders lead great teams and we see the results of this every day across the agency - all the members of the OrangeDoor team going above and beyond to ‘unlock the unforgettable’ for our clients.?

So, we congratulate Elizabeth for a very deserving accolade and thank the OrangeDoor team for its relentless commitment to delivering what we believe to be some of the very best events in our wonderful industry.
