The HWA team started the New Year with a major contract to supply and install a fully integrated audio visual system for the Sunseeker Exhibition stand; the key components were the supply and installation of a ultra wide LED screen, Plasma & LCD screens for key areas of stand and VIP Champagne Bar with its own 103” plasma screen and the on-site audio visual support including live video and audio editing.
Technically the screens were controlled centrally via an Endeleo Managed Multi-format 16 port hub, which converted the AV signal so it could be sent down a single CAT5 or CAT6 cable and then reconverted at the other end.
HWA are one of the first Audio Visual companies to transfer over to this system, which is proving very popular as it can be installed in very little time and it makes considerable savings over conventional systems.
The team also provided technical support for the launch of two brand new yachts including a full PA system for “Only Men Aloud” who performed on the stern of one of the yachts.
Christmas is always a great time to say thank you to staff and clients, and with more and more companies switching from large scale events to more bespoke themed parties, our dedicated themeing and party team is never busier. This year was no exception and with budgets being cut our creativity was really tested, but we think we really delivered with this "winter wonderland" theme which came through very strongly. As requested we provided a magical setting, with tree lined archways, white and blue lighting on the trees and floral decorations.
HWA are pleased to be the production and events company for the Bobby Moore Funds' Annual Gala Dinner. This is a glittering occasion with excitement, entertainment and glamour, and raises funds for bowel cancer research. We provided a full event management service for this event from providing PA for the champagne reception through to the set design and build including sourcing and management of live entertainment for the evening.
The prestigious Your Money Awards event took place at the Merchant Taylors Hall, London, in front of over 200 guests from within the financial sector. The HWA team were on hand from the very first meeting to provide technical and creative support for this annual celebration of financial achievers, with lighting, sound, stage set, themeing, entertainment effects, projection, live camera relay and PowerPoint production. This was the fifth “Your Money Awards” managed by the HWA team, and is now widely regarded as one of the best awards events for the industry in Europe.
