our role
We are working in close conjunction with the client and partner agencies to design and to deliver what could be one of the largest events in Europe in 2025. Starting with a blank canvas we built up the ideas for the event through site design, refining layouts and ultimately moving into scheduling, procurement, budget, along with build and de-rig scenarios. This project shows the full extent of the services undertaken by Special Projects while ensureing that our industry-leading attention to detail is emphasised at every opportunity.
