Red carpet event for ASV
We rolled out the red carpet at Waagnatie in Antwerp for Shiplink #12, the latest edition of the biennial networking event organised by the Antwerp Shipping Federation ASV. The art of making more than 2000 guests feel like VIPs…
VIP network event
Antwerp venue Waagnatie was selected to host the biennial networking event Shiplink, where ASV members have the opportunity to meet their customers and business partners among forwarders, shippers and port service providers in stylish surroundings. The theme we chose for the latest edition – Red Carpet Line – was a celebration of the glories of the Red Star Line, which had its office on the same quay. It also suited the VIP character of the event.
Vintage look and feel
The decor was inspired by the Red Star Line. The stands for ASV members and sponsors were in the form of ship’s cabins, each with a porthole for their visual and logo. The Waagnatie entrance was dressed as a ship’s bow, including landing stage and railing. Stepping inside, the guests found themselves in the ballroom of a luxury cruiser. We had even installed parquet flooring and huge crystal chandeliers. The crew outfits also contributed to the show. All aboard!
Full event service
As per tradition – this was far from our maiden Shiplink voyage – our teams were responsible for the whole event. We developed the Red Carpet Line theme and took on event production, project management and rollout duties: from decoration to communication (check out the visual, sponsors brochure and exhibitor leaflet) and exhibitor hospitality and stand construction.
