Successful Events ended 2003 on a high note with the Launch of the National Health Laboratory Service. All aspects of the launch were co-ordinated by Successful Events – the event creation and design, media campaign, print creation and design, video production and technical. 500 guests were invited to celebrate the Launch of the NHLS at their premises in Sandringham. A marquee village was created to include VIP and Ministerial Welcome areas. The décor in the marquee was simplistic and impactful – cream and burnt orange with bonsai centerpieces. A glossy 14 page programme was produced for the evening to include valuable background to the organization. A three course dinner was served, catering for a variety of dietary requirements without a hitch. The staging and lighting were spectacular, and all created within the confines of a marquee – simultaneous production of the speeches and video onto three screens and staging to accommodate 30 dancers for the highlight of the evening, a 45 minute production of sketches from African Footprint. It tied in perfectly to the theme of the event, Footprints across Africa.
