Soča Valley is an unpolished incentive gem that with appropriate development would be an incentive epicentre of Europe.

Istria, Croatia

Istria is the heart shaped peninsula with a landscape of green rolling hills, drowned valleys and fertile plains ideal for active incentive programs. While the scenic interior is beginning to attract artists and artisans to its hilltop villages, the rugged and indented coastline is enormously popular with the sun’n’sea set.

Julian Alps, Slovenia

Whatever you do, whatever your style, Julian Alps will feed your imagination, fuel your passion and revitalize your spirit. Natural riches, plentiful water sources and a favourable climate created conditions for best incentive ideas and early settlement in this wonderful corner of Europe.

Pleasure cyclists, racing machines and mountain bikers can all shake a leg here: Carinthia offers a wide variety of routes past lakes and rivers, mountains and hills or across hill and dale − alone, with likeminded people or with the whole family.

Picnic with barbeque contest Eventico, Slovenia EXPERIENCE: Event: Picnic with barbeque contest Best time: Spring to autumn Location: Various locations Execution: Eventico ABOUT INCENTIVE: Being outdoors, good food, spending time with your colleagues and building a team atmosphere. We wanted to combine entertainment and teamwork, so the participants are divided into groups and their challenge is to prepare a meal with ingredients they get. They are evaluated according to their skills, time spent on the task, quality of the food, presentation etc.

CHALLENGE: The aim of the event is to bring the co-workers together as a team, showing creativity, role delegation, coordination of the team, and of course, having great fun. Since during the year there is no or little time to have fun with the colleagues, this kind of event is essential for team spirit, motivation and loyalty toward the company. SOLUTION: For this kind of event we suggest a place in the nature, but of course, there are also other possibilities. After the ice-breaking game and snacks, the groups are divided into smaller groups of 5-6-people. They get all the ingredients (meat, vegetables, spices, skewers, cutleryâ&#x20AC;Ś) and a small barbeque. A special group is rating the groupsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; work

and dishes, according to various criteria. After the contest is over, the party with good food, drinks and other games continues. AFTER THE EVENT: All the participants were extremely excited and pleased with the event, the teamwork has improved and the working atmosphere in the company was reported to be excellent.

Case Study

IUSTITIA Istra Inspirit Name: Iustitia Date: 17.07. And 21.08. (we can also organize event for closed groups on other dates) Location: Old town of Poreč Partners: Hotel Palazzo Execution: Istra Inspirit EXPERIENCE: The peninsula of Istria is wellknown for its clear blue sea, beautiful coasts, amazing landscapes, tradition and gastronomy. But, this hidden Mediterranean pearl has much more to offer; if you decide to explore its past, you will find numerous interesting stories, legends and myths. And if you conect them with tradition and gastronomy, what do you get? An amazing, unforgettable experience that will become your lifetime memory. We decided to offer unforgettable moment on authentic locations, with local food and customs, in series of events all over Istria. One of them, „Iustitia“, will present you a true Baroque atmosphere of Poreč and we guarantee you that you don’t want to miss being a part of our most dynamic event. A great way to award your employees, colleagues, partners or friends. ABOUT: Poreč, a charming Mediterranean town in Istria, became a target of a notorious and infamous thief Domenico Furlan in 1699. According to the legend, he destroyed the tabernacle of the Basilica Poreč, stealing the gold and silver with which it was

adorned. Following the „living history“ concept, this legend has been revived and the participants of Istra Inspirit experience „Iustitia“ can now help in returning the stolen treasure. In order to find the thief, the participants have to work as a team and cooperate. During the chase, they must show their skills, but also loyalty to the group. This can be very demanding because in this event the power of a group depends on each member of a team and it is a „must“ to work together. CHALLENGE: In order to catch the thief, co-workers must work as a team. They must show the respect for the other colleagues and trust to each other. Also, they will have to show how good they are in coordination and organization of the tasks and how do they work under pressure. They will be asked to make the best decisions in a short time and to show how they work as a team. At the same time, they will get an unforgettable experience full of fun and learn more about Istria, Poreč, their legends and gastronomy. SOLUTIONS: Everything starts with an interesting and interactive performance of a Basilica Poreč robbery. After they see a thief who stole the treasure from Basilica Poreč, the group will have to find him. In order to do that, they will have to run after him all around Poreč. If they want to be successful, they will have to rely on each other and work as a team. After they find the thief, they will have to decide what to

do with him. In that part they will have to show how good they are in finding compromises. When their task is complete, they will be awarded with a rich Baroque dinner, dances… AFTER THE EVENT: While developing Istra Inspirit project, we noticed that this is a project with a great potential to be offered as an incentive and team-building program. Why? All the experiences of Istra Inspirit project are being held in interesting authentic locations and are a great way to educate its participants in an informal and entertaining way. Through interactive theatre plays and games, we include all participants in the event. Moreover, Istra Inspirit events can be adjusted to almost every request of a group. Our visitors can all agree in one: they’ve got an unexpected, interesting experience and education about Istrian history, tradition and gastronomy, but also about some important life values.
