At AVE Services, we were delighted to provide full AV support for the Oxygen Conference at the Farnborough Conference and Exhibition Centre—a two-day event featuring insightful discussions, a vibrant awards ceremony, and a fantastic evening celebration.
Conference Highlights
Day One:
The event kicked off with a room full for the live discussion, streamed in real-time for remote viewers. In the evening, the space transformed into a professional awards ceremony, followed by a party for attendees to celebrate the occasion.
Day Two:
Delegates split into smaller groups and moved into various rooms throughout the venue, each tailored with the right AV setup to suit the session type. Live streaming continued throughout the day to capture and share each session.
