Barclays approached STLS with the challenge of transforming the training into an engaging, interactive event. Their vision was to take delegates on a journey around the building, where every room had to look, sound and feel completely different. From a cave-inspired environment to a storm-themed room, the aim was to surprise attendees at every turn while keeping the training sharp, professional and on brand.
The gear;
STLS supplied full audio, video, lighting and rigging across the entire site. Technicians were stationed in every room to ensure smooth delivery of the custom environments, each tailored with its own creative identity.
In the main conference space, a large video screen was installed alongside a full lighting and audio package to set the stage for keynote sessions. Breakout rooms were designed individually, each integrating atmospheric sound, bespoke lighting and visual branding. STLS collaborated closely with set designers, providing detailed drawings for each room to ensure the AV and set design worked seamlessly together.
Branding and Design
Barclays branding was integrated across all video screens and presentation elements on site. This consistency reinforced the client’s identity while still allowing each room to deliver a distinct look and feel. The result was a cohesive but varied journey that kept delegates fully engaged throughout the two-day program.
Outcome
The conference was a resounding success. Delegates experienced a training environment that felt innovative, immersive and tailored to the Barclays Life Skills ethos. The technical execution across multiple rooms ensured smooth delivery, while the creative designs made the training memorable.
Results and Client Feedback
The event achieved the client’s objectives of delivering training in a fresh and exciting way. Feedback from both Barclays and attendees highlighted the professionalism, creativity and flawless delivery of the STLS team. The collaboration was so effective that Barclays immediately re-booked with STLS for their next event in November, cementing the partnership for future projects.
