Editorial

Our Live Communication Week gets underway! In Milan’s extremely busy calendar of appointments - dedicated to the most diverse topics, the only truly international appointment focusing on communication has found its rightful place. More precisely, we are talking about experiential communication, brand experience or, as we once used to say, about events. Professionals from 30 countries, from Europe and further afield, are gathered in Lombardy’s capital from 26th to 30th November to forge the most important international festival starring live communication. Professionals from Portugal and Poland, as well as from Spain, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Romania, and as far as Russia, India, China, Brazil and the United States, are animating the two locations chosen for the event: the Meliá Hotel, where the daytime programme takes place, with live presentations of the finalist projects and the rich content programme, and The Mall, the ‘coolest’ location in Milan, located in the heart of Porta Nuova, which hosts the two award ceremonies. As a matter of fact, the two Festivals are held under the same Live Communication Week umbrella: Bea Italia (Tuesday 26th and Wednesday 27th November) and Bea World (from Wednesday 27th to Saturday 30th November). The latter will end with a rich programme of ‘leisure activities’ reserved to our foreign guests who, in this way, will be able to appreciate the best that Milan has to offer in terms of art, fashion, design and food culture (details on www.livecommunicationweek.com). My thanks go to the whole ADC Group team, to our partners, suppliers and sponsors, to the juries and their presidents and, last but not least, to the agency Next Group. Thanks to the victory at last year’s Bea, they took on the onerous honour of organising the production of the event, conceiving its concept together with ADC Group. The ‘Nature of Events’ is the claim behind this first ever Live Communication Week, a title that offers different levels of interpretation, including returning to the fundamental rules of events, but also evolution and, not least, the relationship with the environment that surrounds us, something that, willingly or not, has a profound effect on the sustainability and success of an event itself. So, a week of events it is! We are confident that this business platform will bring together and improve the relationship between supply and demand, and play a significant role in the cultural and economic growth of Live Communication. Salvatore Sagone, ADC Group President & Ceo, Founder of Bea World Festival

Editorial

The Nature of Events. Human nature. As the winner of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edition of the Best Event Awards Italy, this year Next faces an important challenge as the mastermind behind the Live Communication Week. Along with the BEA Italia, for which we will develop a creative concept, daily contents and organise the Awards ceremony, a new format will be launched for the first time which will include the BEA World Festival. The first step is to find a common thread and a unique idea that brings together the two initiatives and its differences. The Nature of Events is our response, a claim that springs from a real need to reflect on the structure and dynamics of events to stimulate a fruitful debate. We will strive to encourage open conversation all the while respecting the Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chosen format while asserting our agencyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s character. Our intention is also to fit moments of narrative inspired by natural phenomena which can be applied to events. We will convey this through images which combine natural landscapes such as canyons or the Aurora Borealis and a hand, symbol of human manipulation. Thus, nature explodes in all its colours together with the human factor. The educational program will play the conceptual role of association between nature and events, including the multiple points of view of all industry players. We want to emphasise that each project conveying a clear brand strategy is not only a show but a moment of emotion and communication. In this technological era, social media is the vehicle to communication but people are at the heart of our events. First we feel the emotions and then we want to communicate and share them. We started from a strong legacy, and we want to leave one of our own by putting our unique signature on the Live Communication Week 2019. Emotion and communication are at the core of every event. And we strongly believe in the need to invest in human capital, in professionalism and ideas because an event is not simply a show, music, videos, lights and technology but, above all, nature. Human nature. Marco Jannarelli, President Next Group

DAY 1 â&#x20AC;˘ 28th November 2019 Worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Best Events and Locations - Live!

On Day 1, Thursday 28th November, the best event agencies and most interesting venues and destinations in the world will showcase their projects live to the Jury members and delegates in a public audition. All shortlisted events will be presented in 8 minutes by a representative of the entrant agency through a 3-minute video, a 3-minute speech, and a 2-minute Q&A session. The Best Event Awards Jury panel, divided into four separate rooms, consists of senior managers from top corporate companies with national and international responsibilities as well as representatives of national event agenciesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; associations. Each group is in charge of assessing a certain number of entries, divided by categories, and establishing the winners in each class. An international Jury panel, comprising senior representatives of national associations of events agencies, votes the best locations. At the

end of the live presentations, the Best Event Awards Jury gathers in a plenary session to assign the Bea World Grand Prix. Winners will be celebrated on Friday 29th November during the Awards Ceremony. This year, ADC Group has introduced the Elephant Prodige Award, a great platform for young talents from the international events industry. The competition aims at recognising the talent and creativity of the next generation of event professionals on a global stage, as well as showcasing their skills to the whole live communications industry. Projects will be judged by the client and the winning team will be crowned live during the Best Event Award ceremony. Bea World Festival is also the perfect environment for a series of activities designed to facilitate the networking among delegates and to create business opportunities with top professionals from all over the world.

DAY 2 • 29th November 2019 Learn from the Best!

by Masters in Moderation The world of events is an ecosystem, that evolves by exchanging emotions, energy and essence. As such, humanity is faced with an ever-growing need for cooperation and sustainability. Crossborder, cross-community and cross-culture collaboration is on the daily agenda. Our events need to dig into this changing landscape and mirror the way our society develops. Our industry needs to keep up with, or even lead, the fast pace of this change. At Bea World Festival 2019, speakers from both inside and outside the events industry will talk about the why, how and what of cooperation, which is ‘The Nature of Events’. On day 2 (29th November), Bea World Festival will take you on a safari, allowing you to study the nature of events more closely. You will observe the ‘Big 11’ (3 keynotes and 8 workshops), showing you how to climb the evolutionary ladder in events. In the morning, you will be taken to new horizons by three speakers from outside our industry. Walter Faaij will give you the anthropological view on meetings and events, looking into how to

study human corporate behavior. Michela Russo will give an overview about ‘The Evolution of Brands’… And finally, Cyriel Kortleven will show you how to explore new creativity. After all, only species that adapt best to new circumstances will survive.The thing with exploring is: you can’t do it from behind your desk. You need to go out there and experience: see, hear, taste, smell, touch, etc.

So our promise to you is that these will not be your standard keynote presentations. You will be a true, (inter)active part of this conference. In the afternoon, a wide variety of workshops will be offered to boost your creativity, emotional experience and learning. Through a highly interactive and engaging programme, each and everyone of you will become a true participant. Just like you would expect in this era of cocreativity. Event-tech evangelist James Morgan will take you back to the future: he will show you, how tech can maximize engagement, to make real cocreation happen. Ben Moorsom will show you the holy grail of events: the inside of the attendee mind. He studies experiences from the neurological

perspective of participants, using data and research to influence design decisions. Rockin’1000 is a roll model project of co-creation. In this session you will study the biggest rock band in the world, to understand what the real value of co-creation is, what true co-creation looks like and how you can apply it to your next event. When African tribes take decisions that effect all, they involve all. Billy Selekane will take you through the process, showing you how tribes crowd source input and co-create execution. The modern conference might be found in ancient traditions. The nature of our events originates from two things: evolution of the good things, and learning from past mistakes. More than any industry, ours is one of co-creation, cooperation and coproduction between all suppliers. Real cocreation also implies co-failing. Fritha Knudsen produced very successful events worldwide, but she also withnessed a fair amount of failures. She has a clear view on how everyone involved should cooperate and on how failures can be prevented, together. Co-creation is part of our human instinct. However, it doesn’t always happen by

itself. Interaction and engagement specialist Martijn Timmermans will show you how to design for successful formats. The nature of events is more and more about protecting the planet. Alejandra Hernández Zita will take you on an interactive trip to the Bea Nature Reservation: where events are no longer jeopardizing the earth. The nature of events is different, depending on where you travel. In this workshop, leading event professionals from various countries will take you on a field trip to their part of the world: Sabbas Joseph (India), Boris Alkhimovich (Russia) and Pedro Gameiro (Brazil). This is a great opportunity to learn, explore potential new markets and

investigate new co-creative business opportunities. The nature of event is about evolution: only the events that adapt best, do survive. ‘Data Darwinism’ can revolutionize that process, if we can really understand the added value. Cesare Salvini will share his model for a data driven approach, as it was developed for Mercedes-Benz. Denise Dechamps will talk about body language and human behaviour and teach you how to improve your communication.

Programme LEONARDO’S LAST SUPPER: A VIS-À-VIS WITH A MASTERPIECE Time: 11:00-12:00 Meeting Point: Piazza Santa Maria delle Grazie - Milano Description: The Last Supper of Leonardo da Vinci is undoubtedly one of the most important artworks of all times, both for its innovative approach and for the impact it has had on art history. Leonardo carried out an exhaustive research creating an infinity of preparatory sketches. He abandoned the traditional method of fresco painting, painting the scene ‘dry’ on a wall of the refectory of the convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie (1494-1498), under the government of Ludovico il Moro. Since then, this ‘Cenacolo’ has inspired generations of artists and has arisen many questions and enigmas.

For me, just as much as food, clothes are also a part of life’, explained Mr. Armani. The building – opened in 2015 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Giorgio Armani brand – was in fact the granary of a major international company, constructed in 1950. The permanent collection offers an overview of over 40 years of the designer’s career, including 400 outfits and 200 accessories from Giorgio Armani’s ready-to-wear collections from 1980 to the present. The visit will be followed by an ‘aperitivo’ at the Silos’ cafeteria.

MILAN: FASHION, FOOD AND HISTORY by Terraevents Lying at the foot of the Alps, Milan is Italy’s financial hub and economic driver, home to the country’s Stock Exchange. It is also Italy’s most cosmopolitan of cities, with a modern central district dominated by skyscrapers and a pretty historical quarter lined with elegant ‘palazzi’, custodians to magical hidden courtyards and gardens. Leader of Italy’s fashion and design industry, Milan is replete with snazzy boutiques, haute couture stores, and furniture workshops producing innovative Italian design. It’s also a city steeped in history– home to the landmark Gothic

Il Duomo and a multitude of inspiring art galleries, museums and churches, filled with some of Italy’s most important works of art including Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece ‘The Last Supper’. 2019 has undoubtedly been the year of Leonardo Da Vinci, with a rich programme of events running across the city, to mark the 500th anniversary of the death of the great Renaissance Master and his strong links to the Lombard capital. Milan’s cultural heritage also includes the worldfamous opera house, Alla Scala, where Bellini,

Rossini and Verdi premiered their works and where audiences have enjoyed performances by the most famous operatic figures of the 20th century including Maria Callas, the prima donna assoluta. A city of hidden pleasures, Milan boasts an extensive and remarkable dining and nightlife scene, ranked as one of the most vibrant in Northern Europe. From early evening aperitivo

hour through to the early hours of the morning, Milan offers an exciting diversity of options in the Navigli area, Isola, Brera and the Columns of San Lorenzo.

THE ANTHROPOLOGY OF EVENTS

Tribal behaviour is a key element in the nature of events. In this keynote, you will learn to understand your event as a ritual that strengthens your culture. Walter Faaij will help you create a team, or design an event in which people feel safe and cared for. He will help you interpret the unwritten rules, looking for new ways to build a culture or create a movement. Corporate anthropology studies contemporary organisations and companies. Within these organisations you’ll find some wonderful and interesting rituals, symbols and unwritten rules, defining and influencing the way an organisation works. Building strong tribes, communities, teams and events becomes a whole lot easier by understanding the way culture is shaped and altered. SPEAKER: Walter Faaij (Human Dimensions)

DIAMANTE ROOM (Floor 0) 10.15-10.45

THE EVOLUTION OF BRANDS: TOWARDS A NEW RELATIONSHIP WITH CONSUMERS

In an ecosystem, all existing species have their role. In ours, brands, agencies, organisers, producers, consumers, participants, etc., all try to find the best way to cohabit with each other. And like any other habitat, ours is changing over time and the way we co-create is evolving. Michela Russo will share experiences and views on how the relationship between brands and consumers has greatly changed over the last few years. Not only must consumers be at the heart of the brand’s every activity; consumers today want to be part of the brand’s creation and evolution process. Creation has become a keyword in many marketing activities. Millennials are the engine that gave momentum to this new way of relating with brands, and brands that are responding well show to be successful. SPEAKER: Michela Russo (Kantar) 36

The Nature of Events is changing… fast: global competition, demanding clients, new technologies… We need event professionals willing to leave their comfort zone, experiment and suspend their judgement. We need event professionals able to explore the world from a different perspective. We need event professionals who aren’t scared to fail fast, often and forward. Are you one of those event professionals who want to co-create a new context for the event-industry? YES… suspend your judgement to break fixed thinking patterns. AND… explore the world from a different perspective to generate new ideas. Cocreation is the key. ACT… take small actions, because the key to real innovation is to experiment and to fail fast, often and forward. SPEAKER: Cyriel Kortleven (cyrielkortleven.com)

Even in a data-driven environment, the nature of events is very much about instinct. During this workshop, Denise Deschamps, psychologist and founder of the Body Language Academy, will show you the fascinating power of body language. We will look into universal ceremonies in interhuman connections. Interactive, sometimes surprising, always respectful and fun. Become aware of what your body tells your client about your intentions, and how you can use your body language actively in creating the effect that you are looking for. Body language is a powerful, easily accessible and extremely personal instrument for untroubled communications. SPEAKER: Denise Dechamps (Body Language Academy)

Jan-Jaap gets people to think and reconsider, convinced as he is that only challenging the status quo will bring new perspectives and new insights. Be it sharing of knowledge, finding solutions to a problem or getting people to understand each other, he will always focus on content and interaction.
