On top of their unique AV integration capabilities they leave your guests with an ‘ Instagram worthy ’ experience which engages the audience , creates hype and gets people talking about the event and the company . Be it with a RoboBar , or the strange sight of a robot sketching a portrait , they exponentially grow the clients ’ profile , through social media , press , or word of mouth , enhancing the perception of their brand which we feel delivers an excellent return on investment for our clients . Our highly skilled team can create a bespoke experience for your guests anywhere in the UK and Europe .
Steve Lakin : On the topic of success , our guests ’ reactions are the best indicator of that . We can see the potential and the value in this technology but the bottom line is always – can our clients envisage it ? Did it provoke the right response ? So , let me share some of their thoughts on the day , because that ’ s what really matters !
Our clients often ask what Protec European Events can do differently – well , this new event technology is just one way we can push out the boundaries of what is possible and deliver a unique event experience .
“ Thanks for inviting me to your Robot Open Day … Simply WOW ! They have to be seen to be believed , and certainly open up a completely new world of opportunities to do something different . I ’ m looking forward to promoting these ideas further within Xerox and can ’ t wait to see the video !” – Jane Campbell , Event Operations Manager , Xerox
“ The robotic AV demonstration at Protec was awesome , powerful and absorbed your personal and total attention . What a fabulous attraction to hire for any launch , award ceremony or special live event !” – Lesley Russon , Director , Showoff Display Limited
You mentioned value – in what way do these robots bring value to your clients ?
Steve Lakin : We feel it is essential that innovation adds true value and offers real solutions – particularly from the client ’ s perspective . Firstly , we believe these robots offer exciting solutions from an AV point of view . Each robot can master an array of multi-directional movements with sensitivity and speed . It honestly makes me hold my breath when I see how quickly they move and how closely they appear to come to colliding ! It offers another dimension to how we can move not just screens – but also lighting arrays and other heavy objects in multiple directions not previously possible with traditional motors and truss .
Chris Bramwell : Also , everyone wants their event to stand out from the ordinary . We know that our robotics will make our clients ’ events more memorable or leave a lasting impact , creating a buzz or a conversation .
Being part of the Protec Group , we have access to a much larger palette of event production resources , including state of the art technology , equipment & highly skilled staff .
We are in a stronger position to extend our services to a larger client base and offer a more comprehensive and creative approach to our technical productions .
Are clients limited to what they saw at the Open Day and past events ?
Steve Lakin : Absolutely not , one purpose of the Open Day was to stir and activate our clients ’ imaginations . If a client can imagine a scenario they would like to see the robots in – perhaps related to their own industry – we can work closely with them to choreograph moves on a show to show basis so they can see their own idea become a reality and take an active part in evolving the technology . We welcome new challenges and encourage our clients to be as creative as possible .
