Case Study Investment Bank

Client Brief:

Large South African Investment Bank approached us to help them with an event for their product and marketing teams, for them to be recognised with their first offsite reward for all their hard work.

Our Thinking:

We decided to deliver a personalised, highly organised two day off site event that would be memorable and unique leaving attendees feeling valued, invested in and motivated.

From working with major clients such as Barclays, PwC and Microsoft, Chillisauce understands that this level of investment has measurable benefits; staff retention, productivity and communication (especially with regards to new divisions).
