Sesam Concepts
designing industry platforms
We design and organize conference campaigns and platforms on behalf of government bodies, associations and industry groups which we consult.
Our work involves a lot of lobbying and communication in order to get many people and groups to join one cause (conference message). The physical results of our work are one or two day conferences where an industry group meets its peers, potential customers and regulating government bodies. The intangible result of our work are improved relationships, business ties and networks between all players. The audience in return is educated and learns about best practice. We operate under German management and are based in Dubai, UAE. We operate across the Arabian Gulf region.
Target Audience: Top management of industry suppliers, top management of associations and business groups, government department heads
I'd like to explore the following colors:
Reds: Energy, action, passion and love.
Light neutrals: Purity, balance and sophistication.
We would like to have a webpage which conveys an idea of our work through strong and large pictures of our events, rather than too much text (strongly visual approach). The page must be elegant with smooth navigation. Our clients need to see the action happening at conferences, and business events. This can be shown through creatively presenting photos of audiences, speakers and panels on stage, networking during exhibitions, hand shakes of people with mixed background. Our target group are international managers and Gulf Arabs (UAE, Qater, Saudi, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman).
Values we want to convey: highest level of integrity and trustworthiness. Professionalism and confidentiality. Problem solving, hands-on and fast moving.
We provided more photos than needed, but want to give more options for possible selections.
We liked the image and layout style of the following page: https://branded.me/
We like light and white background, with grey and black colour for text . Apple style? :-)
(What we do)
Every large and every niche industry sector needs its own platforms and networks to recognize quality, progress and leadership. Can we help building yours?
We bring likeminded parties to the same table, lobby ideas and facilitate exceptional event platforms. This is our passion. We are proud of numerous established platforms and networks of industry players which developed a unique legacy with our help.
(How we work)
Through events as the most direct form of marketing we ensure that our clients get into personal contact with their target group. Have you got an idea for a program, but no time to reach out to speakers, plan marketing, budgets or logistics? You feel that you know your industry but you don’t have everyone's contacts? Our team spends time with you to fully understand your objectives, propose and action solutions, and importantly keeps all stakeholders updated. Services we provide are:
- Consultation
- Campaign management
- Budget preparation
- Research on target group or expert speakers
- Design management
- Marketing management
- Approaching and liaising (speakers, target group, stakeholders etc.)
- Involving multipliers
- Sponsorship management
- Registration management
- Venue management
