Experiences begin with a spark—an idea shaped through creativity and intention.
Our team plays a crucial role in turning that spark into meaning.
This week, we asked Amy Black what creativity means to her:
“Creativity to me is a desire to engage with the world in a way that unveils what's behind the obvious, to reveal all that is possible.”
Because when creativity has purpose, audiences feel the difference.

Reducing food & beverage waste doesn’t have to feel operational. It can be creative, fun, and deeply experiential when gamification becomes part of the design.
Building on an article about minimizing food waste at events, here are a few ways to use creative gamification to spark better choices and more memorable moments:
• Flavor Exploration Challenges
Attendees “level up” by sampling intentionally portioned small plates, unlocking new flavor profiles as they go. It’s playful, unexpected, and quietly reduces overproduction.
• Space vs. Space Sustainability Showdowns
Rather than spotlight individuals, lounges or breakout rooms earn recognition for lower collective waste. It creates camaraderie, not pressure, and turns sustainability into a shared creative challenge.
• Ingredient Discovery Cards
Attendees collect beautifully designed cards tied to dishes that highlight thoughtful sourcing or seasonal ingredients. Completing sets unlocks new experiences—mixology moments, tasting rituals, or behind-the-scenes chef conversations.

Our perspective:
Creative gamification doesn’t distract from sustainability—it makes it engaging, intuitive, and unexpectedly fun.
When you weave play into the attendee journey, waste reduction becomes a byproduct of a better-designed experience.

Every incentive program can do more than reward. When designed intentionally, it becomes an experience that speaks to people’s aspirations, values, and motivations.

Creativity looks different for every member of our team—and that’s exactly why it works.
In our experience-first agency model, creativity isn’t just an output; it’s a mindset that shapes how we solve problems, design experiences, and build moments that move people.
Today, we’re spotlighting Emily Kapecki, who shares her perspective on what creativity means in her work:
“To me, having a creative mindset means operating from a place of curiosity and calm. I find my creativity flows more when I take a step back and reflect. When I do this, creative ideas tend to appear because I am open to them, without judgment.”
When diverse thinking meets strategic intention, creativity becomes impact.
