The client’s request
A high-quality green event for CBRE
Following the triumph of the first edition of Re Focus, CBRE GWS' sustainability-focused event, the client once again entrusted us with boosting the project's visibility and plan the second one. For this new edition, they sought a venue that would embody the event’s commitment to sustainability, alongside a line-up of influential speakers who could spark meaningful conversations. The challenge was clear — to build upon and surpass an already excellent standard while keeping sustainability firmly in the spotlight
Our proposal
A strategic venue, renowned speakers and expert moderation
Working closely with CBRE, we selected a central venue that not only offered functionality but also reflected the green values at the core of the project.
We designed the event flow to seamlessly integrate networking sessions and sustainable catering, while carefully curating the speaker line-up to deliver valuable, impactful content.
We proposed journalist and environmental specialist Tonia Cartolano as moderator, whose expertise and incisive guidance elevated the discussions. Former professional tennis player Filippo Volandri was selected as keynote speaker, thanks to his recognised commitment to environmental causes.
From supplier coordination to logistical planning, every detail was executed with precision and care, creating an inspiring and thought-provoking experience. Our mission was to make Re Focus not just a successful event, but a benchmark for future editions.
Results achieved
Working on the next edition with CBRE
The second edition of Re Focus was met with unanimous praise, thanks to flawless organisation and top-quality content. The client was quick to express their satisfaction and confirmed us for the following edition, a testament to the trust built and the standard delivered. The event successfully combined insight, connection, and a strong commitment to sustainability, reinforcing CBRE GWS’s role as a leader in the green transition.
