Why planners choose us

The easiest standing ovation on your agenda.

You have a room full of people and one chance to make them feel something together. Here’s what your general session walks away with.

A shared peak moment

The emotional high of your whole event — the story attendees retell back at the office.

Everyone participates

From 20 to 5,000, the entire room is in it at once. No rotations, no one sitting out.

Turnkey logistics

We handle materials, staging and charity partners, and slot cleanly into your run-of-show.

On-theme & on-brand

We tie the experience to your conference theme, message and the cause that fits your brand.

Built for the big room

Most activities can’t scale. Ours were designed for it.

We’ve run general sessions up to 5,000 people and produced the Guinness World Record–setting bike build for our client, DaVita. The bigger the room, the bigger the moment.

  • Synchronized across the whole room — every table working toward one reveal.
  • Full production support — staging, audio cues, facilitation and flow.
  • A built-in reveal — attendees meet the kids who receive what they built.

Shoes That Matter

Build durable shoes for kids who’ve never owned a pair, and stand up a lasting ‘Shoe Bank’.

The reason it sticks

A general session that gives back to the host city.

Every build is donated to children in your conference’s community — so the room doesn’t just bond, it leaves something real behind. That’s what turns a session into a story.

Conference planning FAQs

How many people can take part? +

From a breakout of 20 to a general session of 5,000. Our activities are built to scale, so the entire room participates at once — no rotating groups and no one sitting out.

How long does it take? +

Most general-session activities run 60 to 90 minutes, including the reveal when participants meet the children receiving what they built. Shorter and longer formats are available.

How far in advance should we book? +

For large general sessions we recommend 6 to 12 weeks so we can coordinate logistics, charity partners and your theme. Faster turnarounds are often possible — book a call to check availability.

What do you need from our venue? +

A general-session room with tables, standard staging and AV. We bring the materials, facilitation and production team and integrate into your run-of-show.
