An overhead view of three people collaborating at a table, working on design sketches and digital content. One person with pink hair is sketching on a paper filled with structured diagrams, while another points at a tablet displaying an image. A bold red triangular frame overlays the image, drawing focus to the teamwork. The words 'Strategies & solutions' are prominently displayed in white text on a red banner, emphasizing a theme of problem-solving and innovation.

Without a solid strategic framework to underpin all the fabulousness, it’s just guesswork.

Event lifecycle

Every event we produce has a lifecycle it follows to ensure that all elements are perfectly placed and working towards your overall goals. Each phase ensures the relevant experts are shaping your event, and that as the whole picture forms, nothing is by accident. Everything we do is purposeful and will see a great return on your investment.

A structured diagram illustrating a four-step process, represented by a continuous diamond-shaped loop with gradient-colored segments. Each corner of the diamond corresponds to a different phase:

Strategy (top): 'Build consensus to reveal purpose and objectives.'
Design (right): 'Translate strategy into an experience that aligns with core objectives.'
Planning (bottom right): 'Execution of creative and logistics plan to deliver the experience.'
Evaluation (bottom left): 'Evaluate alignment with strategy and apply learnings.'
The visual conveys a cyclical workflow, emphasizing strategic planning, execution, and refinement.

It’s all in the details

Event strategy

Any successful event is built on a solid strategy where your objectives are scrutinized, evaluated and then used as the basis to build something powerful and inspiring. Without a strategy it’s all just blind guessing.

Event design

With a firm strategic foundation in place, every design decision is based on the knowledge and research we have. We go beyond aesthetics and ensure we deliver something not only visually arresting but an event that aligns with every aspect of your brand and who you are.

Event planning

Meticulous execution is next. Our logistical expertise and attention to detail mean that your experience will be frictionless and that all communications will be streamlined, giving you peace of mind to focus on having a great time.

Event evaluation

Reflection is crucial. We assess the ROI and success of each event so that we can continue to deliver on your needs, and evolve our offering, making sure those KPIs are smashed and that we move forward together.

He holds a power drill in one hand and steadies a wooden plank with the other, smiling as he looks up. The background features an industrial-style workspace with metal siding and wooden structures, suggesting a creative or construction-focused environment.

Sustainable practices

Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword for us here at TSEC, it is a genuine respect for our environment and making sure we do all we can to minimize our impact.

The three Rs: reduce, reuse, recycle form the backbone of our strategy and we always act as a mentor to our clients in this area. As part of the wider creative communications agency, DRPG, we sit within an organization who are world-leaders in the sustainability arena.

DRPG was awarded the Queen’s Award for Sustainable Development – the first creative agency ever to receive this prestigious recognition. B Corp accreditation is another accolade that shows we put sustainability at the heart of everything we do.

Health, safety & risk management

Our industry experience has led us to be recognized as international experts in event planning risk management. We genuinely care for our clients, attendees, vendors and team alike, and ensuring their safety is of the utmost importance.

Our team members are CPR and First Aid certified, having also completed the IAVM Trained Crowd Manager program.
