IN A NUT SHELL
The Talk Innovation Leadership event, presented by Creative HQ, is a unique opportunity to connect leaders of local organisations with globally renowned innovators, offering valuable insight and inspiration through workshops and keynote talks. To ensure a seamless experience for all leaders, attendees, and audiences, Nomad Studios supported the design of all Talk Innovation Leadership marketing and event materials

THE CHALLENGE
As the first of its kind that Creative HQ had run, this exclusive event required a consistent and cohesive design approach that would create a unified front, generating excitement and interest among potential attendees. All promotional materials had to embody this unified design concept, conveying the high-end nature of the event. As a standout event in 2023, the look and feel of all materials needed to reflect its significance while remaining true to the overall Creative HQ brand. The design also had to be flexible, as it would be applied across various touchpoints, including promotional content, attendee communication, event merchandise, signage, and stage wayfinding. The design approach aimed to highlight the value of the event for local organisations, showcasing the unique opportunity to engage one-on-one with globally renowned leaders. To achieve this, careful consideration of visual elements was required to create a distinct hierarchy of information that accurately conveyed the exclusive benefits and advantages that organisations would gain from their participation. Overall, the design output aimed to capture the essence of the event, creating a memorable and impactful visual experience for all attendees.

THE Solution
In order to maintain a strong connection to the Creative HQ brand, we took a deep dive into their brand, utilising secondary colours and manipulating brand graphics to create a collection of visual identifiers to shape the Talk Innovation Leadership Series. These were implemented across all Talk Innovation Leadership materials including marketing and event communications, social media content, event wayfinding and signage, lanyards, notebooks and other event documentation. The use of consistent branding elements enabled the event to look and feel cohesive, embedding confidence in attendees in the quality and value of the event.

THE OUTCOME
In 2023, Creative HQ's inaugural Talk Innovation Leadership event took place in Wellington, featuring keynote speakers Dr. Maciej Kraus, lecturer from Stanford University and London Business School, and Tim Brown, co-founder and CEO of Allbirds. This inspiring event brought together local leaders and internationally renowned innovators, providing valuable insight and inspiration through workshops and talks. Due to the success of the first event, Talk Innovation Leadership is now expanding into a series of events located in various regions throughout Aotearoa and internationally. The event provides opportunities for leaders from diverse industries to connect and exchange ideas, as well as gain valuable insights from top innovators from around the world.
