Seeking a unique and modern venue for their first audience-led business festival, Hustle & Heels selected the Ministry of Sound. The venue’s versatile and dynamic spaces were perfect for creating an immersive, conversation-driven experience tailored to entrepreneurs, business leaders, and professionals.

HustleFest fully utilised the adjoining spaces, transforming them into a vibrant and engaging environment. The event began right from the entrance, which was fully branded with custom boarding and lighting to set the tone for the festival. Guests entered through a tunnel designed for photo opportunities, creating an exciting and interactive welcome before moving into the main interior of the venue.

The festival was designed as a series of separate destinations within the venue, each catering to different aspects of the event. The Box served as the main stage, hosting panel talks with key speakers and drawing the central focus of the festival. Equipped with advanced audio-visual technology, this area enhanced the presentations and discussions.

Scottish Widows sought a contemporary venue with advanced audio-visual capabilities for their internal training day. The Ministry’s ground floor spaces offered the unique setup they needed, providing an ideal environment for both large group sessions and more focused discussions.

The training day was attended by 60 guests, necessitating a cabaret-style furniture arrangement. In addition to the main training area, the event utilized two of The Ministry’s Meeting Rooms. These spaces were reserved for intensive discussions and training sessions with the senior leadership teams of Scottish Widows. The advanced technology available in these rooms ensured high engagement and effective communication with attendees, supporting the training objectives.

The Ministry’s state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment played a crucial role in maintaining attendee engagement throughout the day. High-quality displays, sound systems, and interactive tools were seamlessly integrated into the sessions, enhancing the overall learning experience.

The Business Leaders Connect Conference aimed to foster connections among industry leaders and provide education through engaging round table panel talks.

The client’s brief was clear: to transform the space into a technology-enhanced area that could serve multiple purposes, including a lounge area and a section for panel discussions. The White Space was transformed into ‘The Studio,’ a multifunctional space equipped with state-of-the-art facilities to meet the diverse needs of the conference.

Large media walls provided instant information and updates, ensuring attendees were always informed. Registration desks were strategically placed for efficient check-ins, while coffee bars and lounge seating offered areas for relaxation and networking.

To facilitate networking and engagement, various activities such as hybrid breakout sessions were organised. These ‘tribe sessions’ allowed international participants to join the discussions in real time, making the event truly global.

TalkTalk Business hosted a landmark event, the Connectivity Matters Summit, with us in May, which brought together over 200 Carrier and Partner customers. The conference was designed to champion the importance of connectivity in the modern business landscape.

The event took place at the iconic Ministry of Sound, and the choice of location perfectly complemented the conference’s vision, providing an environment that was both dynamic and conducive to high-level discussions. Guests were greeted with high-impact signage, setting the tone for the day as they entered the venue. The LED wall in The 103 ensured continuous brand visibility.

The success of the Connectivity Matters Summit was a result of meticulous planning and seamless execution. TalkTalk worked closely with the in-house events team to align every detail with the conference objectives. This collaboration was key to ensuring that the event proceeded without a hitch, from the initial setup to the final closing remarks.
