Sleek Events

Wimbledon has kicked off, and here at SleekHQ, we're in the heart of the action! 🎾 ✨ We couldn't be more thrilled to have the tennis right on our doorstep. It also means we get to see all the brand activations throughout the town centre! JOE & THE JUICE have introduced a new juice on the menu and it's named after tennis star Nick Kyrgios. LUSH Wimbledon has launched a limited edition tennis ball-shaped bath bomb exclusive to their Wimbledon store! Ralph Lauren's flagship store on New Bond Street, although not near SleekHQ, is adorned with Wimbledon-themed decorations. In recent years, Ralph Lauren has emphasised sustainability in their Wimbledon collections, using eco-friendly materials and practices. This aligns with broader industry trends and appeals to environmentally conscious consumers! Have you seen any cool brand activations recently? We'd love to hear about your favourites! #Sleek #Wimbledon #WimbledonTennis #BrandActivations

Goodwood Festival of Speed 2024! 🏎 🔥 From 11 to 14 July, motor enthusiasts will descend on the Goodwood Estate for the famed automotive event. This year the festival is honouring the evolution of engines with the catchphrase ‘Horseless to Hybrid,’ referencing the development from the first ‘horseless’ carriages to modern electric cars. We are excited to announce that our very own Nastassja Keenes will be attending! Make sure to connect with her if you’re there and share in the excitement of this spectacular event. Keep an eye on our socials next week to get her key highlights and takeaways! Big brands in the automotive industry will be there to show off their new models, with MG having snagged the coveted central display.

I throughly enjoyed reading this article today, showcasing some innovation at this year's #GlastonburyFestival. The Hayes Pavilion was built using a biomaterial made out of seaweed. It's really exciting to see what design agencies like re:right design are doing in the festival and events space and is such useful insights for our own creative team at Sleek Events. Design plays such a huge part in the process of producing more sustainable events, and is woven into the 'planet' pillar of our sustainability strategy. https://lnkd.in/eAQba5dz Thanks to my sustainable partners in crime The Bulb for sharing the article with me! #Sustainability #Innovation #NaturalDesign #SustainableEvents #SustainableMaterials #SleekEvents

Don't forget, it's Silverstone Weekend! 🏎 Of course, you remembered! Every year I tell myself that I must go! What excites me is seeing how the popularity of F1 has grown over the last 4-5 years. People love it and let's not be naive in understanding how much Drive to Survive helped this. A documentary showing real life and real moments brought a sense of humanity to the F1 world. It all circles back to the fact that people buy people, we like "nice" people and we enjoy relating to people, it makes us trust them! Continue being kind and genuine. Good luck to McLaren Racing and Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team this weekend! I hope the rain stays away! Here are some VERY young pictures of me at the Melbourne Grand Prix in 2012! #f1 #grandprix #silverstone #hospitality #McLaren #Mercedes

Is Geneva the bellwether for auto shows? It was great to share my thoughts with Automotive World about the battle The Geneva International Motor show has faced since it was forced to close during Covid.     Unfortunately, shows like Geneva Salon have struggled to make a comeback despite its undeniably rich heritage and legacy. This new post-pandemic era provides a great opportunity for the automotive industry and the associated shows – but we need to put customer needs at the heart of it. Read the full article, and my thoughts about how the industry should be adapting, in Automotive World here:  https://lnkd.in/eFFpN-Cw     #automotive #events #motorshows #genevamotorshow

Having been named #19 on the Sunday Times fastest growing companies list a few years ago, it was an honour to be featured again this year in their post-pandemic ‘Recovery heroes’ feature. #Covid was a brutal time for all of us, but something inside me knew we would come back bigger, better and stronger than ever. And that we did - having seen a 139% revenue increase since the pandemic ended. Thank you to the The Times for recognising Sleek Events journey once again. We are delighted to be listed amongst some incredible businesses in the UK. We nearly lost it all: the companies that survived Covid https://lnkd.in/eYRwedNV #businessowner #covid #bounceback #femalefounder

Key takeaways from the, ‘You Have a Sustainability Strategy but Now What?’ Reset Connect panel, with Selina Donald, Gabriella Weekes, Joanne Fielding and Donna Abberley. “It’s so important that we share our knowledge - nobody in this industry can work in silo. What you don’t know, you can’t change…” - Selina “Sustainability should be considered from the very start and not an after-thought… make sure your creative team are with you in asking the right questions.” - Gabriella “Nobody has all the answers, but by working with each other, we will get there.” - Joanne #SustainabilityMatters #ResetConnect
