Verve Company Retreat AOK Creative

Verve Company Retreat Osea Island, Essex

Innovative software company Verve, were planning a retreat that reflected their company ethos of being able to work from anywhere. Osea Island was the perfect venue for their staff to have fun and to work in a social and relaxed environment...in the middle of nowhere!

WHAT WE DID:

Event production. Installing lighting around the whole island including party lighting and sound systems
Ensuring all the basics like security and medical teams were on the island
Bringing along the fun stuff, including a huge inflatable assault course, fire walkers, Gypsy Shrine glitter face painting, karaoke, and an outdoor cinema.
Talking of the outdoor cinema, our production team worked with actors to create an immersive horror experience for the screening of The Strangers. We terrified everyone (in a fun way!)
We built a yurt village
There was a huge party on a Friday night. We worked with Tribe of Frog to create a psychedelic vibe throughout, UV cannons enhanced everyone’s glow paint and glitter!

RESULTS: We received excellent feedback from the Verve staff survey, averaging a score of 8.7/10. The team is already discussing plans with us to go bigger and bolder next year!
