The run of show, minute by minute
A launch differs from a conference in one decisive way: there is no second attempt. The reveal happens once, and if it lands while guests are still at reception it is gone. So the run of show is written in minutes and rehearsed before the day.
The moment first, everything else around it
We start from one question: which moment must the guest leave with? The ribbon, the unveiling of the product, the signing of the agreement. Everything before and after is built to serve it, not the other way round.
Reception is counted in minutes
Two hundred guests do not walk in inside five minutes. We calculate reception time against the real number and start the programme after it, not with it. At Al-Khalidi Group's SINOTRUK announcement, receiving more than 200 guests was a line of its own in the schedule.
Protocol written down, not improvised
Who receives the senior guests, where they sit, who walks them through — written by name, not by title. At the Subsea7 office launch in Al-Hugayet Tower, Khobar, the tour, the ribbon and the first working day ran as a single sequence.
A full rehearsal before the day
The reveal is rehearsed: the drape, the lighting, the sound, where the photographer stands. Whatever goes untested fails in the one moment that cannot be run again.
Coverage planned, not caught
The photographer knows the moment before it happens and where to stand for it. The JESCO and ArcelorMittal celebration ran with one visual identity across several sites, and coverage was part of the plan rather than an addition to it.
Ask any supplier: is there a rehearsal, and when? The answer reveals whether the event is planned or left to the day itself.
Launches we have delivered
Subsea7 office opening
At Al-Hugayet Tower in Dhahran — the opening route, guest reception and the formal ribbon-cutting, so the ceremony ended and the first working day began in the same place without a break.
Al-Khaldi Group's deal with SINOTRUK
A reception majlis with traditional furnishings inside an air-conditioned tent, hospitality for more than 200 guests, and the handover yard arranged so the fleet of trucks lined up exactly in the background.
Alinma retail kiosk
A complete build from receiving materials at night to the raised logo letters — a journey documented in twelve shots.
Common questions
How much lead time do I need before the launch?
The earlier you start, the more slack the schedule carries. We issue a day-by-day schedule signed off before we begin, with handover two days ahead rather than on the morning.
Do you handle protocol and VIP reception?
Yes — guest management, protocol and reception are within the contract, and with official bodies that is not a marginal detail.
Can the event run across several sites?
Yes. We delivered the Eid al-Adha celebration for JISCO and ArcelorMittal across several sites with matching detail, so an employee at any location feels they are at the same celebration.
What if something changes at the last minute?
A single accountable route means the change passes through one company and shows in the schedule immediately — instead of a re-quote from every affected supplier.
What does a launch event cost?
It moves on the guest count, the venue if it is not ready, and what the reveal itself needs — a moving drape, lighting, a screen, effects. Send the number, the location, the date and the nature of the moment, and an itemised quote reaches you within one business day.
How much lead time do you need?
The earlier you start the wider the choice of venue and materials; but what really governs it is site readiness and the availability of the principal guests. Tell us the target date and we will say plainly whether it is deliverable — we do not accept a date we know we cannot meet.
Do you deliver at the client's own premises rather than a venue?
Yes — most of what we have delivered in this category. The Subsea7 launch was at their own Khobar premises, and the ENMA retail kiosk was built on site from unloading panels at night through to the lighting running. Premises impose limits on noise and working hours, and those enter the schedule from the start.
Can the event run at several sites on the same day?
Yes. The JESCO and ArcelorMittal Eid celebration ran across several sites under one visual identity: entrance gates, a photo area, hospitality and gift distribution. What makes it possible is standardising materials and crews in advance, not doubling the effort on the day.
