We were delighted to support Volvo Car UK with the delivery of their Retailer Marketing Conference in Birmingham.

The event united Volvo’s UK retailer network, marketing teams, and key agency partners for an inspiring day focused on aligning strategy, sharpening brand direction, and elevating retail ex*****on for the year ahead.

Across plenary sessions, keynote talks, and interactive breakouts hosted by Mike O’Neill, Google, and advocacy partner Richie Norton, the conference created space for meaningful collaboration and forward-thinking discussion. It was also an opportunity to reveal to retailers the all-new Volvo ES90 which was a highlight for delegates.

We were proud to support every step of the experience, including:
• Event identity and theming
• Venue sourcing and hospitality
• Content creation including opening video and speaker support slides
• Delegate management
• Event staffing
• Vehicle logistics

A huge thank you to everyone involved - we loved bringing this event to life and helping set the tone for an exciting year ahead for Volvo Car UK.

Showcasing innovation at RTX Scotland.

This week in Glasgow we’re supporting Mercedes-Benz Trucks as they showcase the future of transport.

From concept to completion, we created a stand that reflects the brand’s ambition - complete with custom graphics, thoughtful design, and a professional team on the ground.

Visitors could explore the latest Mercedes-Benz Trucks lineup and learn how the brand is investing in Scotland through its partnership with Ciceley Commercials Ltd and the all-new Eurocentral dealership.

We loved experiencing the newly reopened chimney lift at Battersea Power Station - a truly one of a kind journey to the top of one of London's most iconic landmarks.
After a recent refurb, the experience feels more immersive than ever, offering stunning 360° views and a real sense of stepping into the cities's history.
Experiences like this are a powerful reminder of what exceptional storytelling and smart design can deliver, and why we're so passionate about discovering standout concepts for our clients.
Always exploring. Always inspired. Always looking for the next unforgettable brand moment.

Turning brand stories into unforgettable live experiences.

We were proud to support Volvo Car UK with the planning and delivery of an exhilarating adventure in North Wales, where automotive journalists and content creators put the new Volvo EX30 Cross Country and uplifted XC60 and XC90 to the test.

The guest itinerary was kept a secret until the last moment, full of surprises and highlights including:
• Tackling rugged quarry terrain
• Soaring through the skies on a zipline
• Kayaking through stunning Welsh landscapes

After 2 days of outdoor challenges, guests refuelled with incredible food from the brilliant Adam Purnell - Shropshire Lad

Designed to show what happens when capability meets adventure, the experience brought Volvo’s spirit of exploration to life in the most thrilling way.

Venue sourcing - discovering hidden gems

We recently had the pleasure of meeting the team behind Hyll, a peaceful new retreat tucked away in the Cotswolds where the ethos is simply to “do nothing.”

Designed for true relaxation, Hyll offers sumptuous sofas, a mini library curated by local favourite The Borzoi, and a menu centred around comfort and calm — think tea and toast done beautifully.

What stood out to us:
• A genuine home-from-home feel, complete with a boot room in place of a reception desk
• Breathtaking views of unspoilt countryside from the terrace
• Individually designed bedrooms in soft, calming tones
• A sleek, Scandi-inspired bar and restaurant serving locally sourced produce
• The light-filled Orangery, ideal for intimate meetings, chef-hosted dinners or product launches

At The Event Business, we’re always on the lookout for distinctive venues that elevate guest experience - and Hyll is one worth knowing.

Our team supported Subaru with:
• Eye-catching vehicle placement and photography in front of the Palace

TEB x Belveder - Charity Partnership Update.

We’re proud to share that the ambulance we funded for Belveder has now been safely delivered to the Polish-Ukraine border by our amazing team members, Dave and Martin.

The journey was no small feat - a three-day drive across Belgium, Germany and Poland - but all worth it to support Belveder’s vital humanitarian work. On arrival at the final checkpoint, the team were greeted with heartfelt thanks (and some very strong home-made vodka!).

The response we’ve had from the Belveder network has been overwhelming, with one team member writing:

“On behalf of myself and all Ukrainians, I want to express our deepest gratitude for your contribution. The ambulances you have delivered to Poland will very soon arrive in Ukraine and will be handed over to meet the needs of the Armed Forces in Ukraine. They will be saving lives not only of the military but also civilians, many of who remain in the combat zone. You have done an incredible thing! Thank you very much for your support.”

The Future of Luxury Events

A big thank-you to micebook LUXE for an inspiring business forum exploring what’s next for luxury experiences. For two days, The Fish Hotel in the Cotswolds became a private retreat for thought-provoking conversations, creative presentations and genuine connection.

Highlights included:
Innovative launches – from the striking new Gallery at The Savoy London to the Orient Express sailing yachts redefining luxury travel.
Immersive activities – duck herding (yes, really!) that tested our teamwork, and a “walking think-tank” through the sun-drenched countryside.
A standout keynote – Markus Kramer’s challenge to reimagine luxury in an evolving world.

Key insights we’re taking forward:
💡In a world where everything can be copied, what remains irreplaceable is people – and experiences are what connects them.
💡Experiences are strategic levers that build culture
💡Luxury isn’t about having more; it’s about feeling more.
💡In the age of distraction, time is the ultimate luxury.

Beautifully curated menus, meaningful conversations and a serene setting made this event a reminder that the success of a luxury experience is measured not just in the moment, but in the stories people share long after.

We are delighted to announce our new charity partnership with Belveder.

Belveder is committed to providing humanitarian aid to Ukraine, including ambulances and first-response vehicles.

Based locally in Leamington Spa, the charity has sent over 200 tons of critical medical supplies to communities in Ukraine, providing hope to countless individuals and families during these challenging times.

To support Belveder in their work we have purchased an ambulance that will be on its way to Ukraine this evening, loaded with donations and driven by our wonderful team members Dave and Martin.

As part of this partnership, we will provide secure storage for ambulances prior to their departure and support future fundraising efforts to keep this essential aid moving where it’s needed most.

- Stand production & logistics
- AV installation
- Event staffing, valets & chauffeur drivers
- Panel Q&A logistics & digital content support
- Accommodation & hospitality

With this collaboration, we brought Volvo’s story closer to people through powerful live experiences.
