The situation

A diplomatic event has no room for improvisation.

Seating follows protocol order, invitations follow rank, dietary and security requirements are non-negotiable, and the schedule has to hold to the minute. One missed detail is visible to everyone in the room.

We produce these events with that discipline: written running order, confirmed guest list, briefed staff and one contact for the mission or organisation.

Who this is for

Missions, chambers and trade organisations

  • Embassies and consulates in Finland producing receptions and national day events
  • Trade and investment agencies hosting delegations and bilateral programmes
  • Chambers of commerce and bilateral business councils
  • Ministries and public organisations hosting international visitors
  • Companies joining a state or trade delegation programme

Typical assignments

What we are usually asked to produce

Receptions and national day events

Venue, invitations by rank, protocol seating, catering, staff briefing and a running order that holds.

Delegation visits

Programme across several days: meetings, transport, dinners, interpreters and a printed schedule for every participant.

Bilateral business programmes

Matchmaking sessions, seminars and an evening programme that gives the delegation actual meetings.

Signature and announcement events

A controlled setting for a signing or announcement, with press access and photography arranged separately from the guest programme.
