Chameleon Agency

You can hand one team the whole job, from the creative idea and messaging through staging, delegate registration and the carbon report afterwards, without stitching together separate creative, production and logistics suppliers. Chameleon says it assembles specialists around each brief and keeps overheads low so more of your budget reaches the event. It is a Manchester agency whose stated focus is employee engagement, working with HR, internal communications and sustainability teams on conferences, awards, parties and launches.

Services

You can buy the full service or a single part of it.

• Strategy and creative: discovery workshops, creative direction, event themes and messaging, design.
• Content: video, animation, presentation decks and on-site filmed content.
• Production: audio-visual and technical production, staging and LED screen design, rehearsals.
• Delegate management and logistics: venue finding, transport and accommodation, pre-event and on-site registration using an off-the-shelf system or a bespoke registration site run by its logistics team.
• Exhibition stands: design, build and project management, including modular and recycled-board stands.
• Virtual and hybrid events, roadshows, incentive events and brand activations.
• Measurement: sustainability reporting, post-event surveys and campaigns.

Projects run through a process the agency calls ADAPT (align, design, assemble, produce, transform), with itemised budgets that it says are reviewed throughout and overspend risks flagged early.

Company

The trading company is Chameleon Comms Ltd (company number 12639691), incorporated on 2 June 2020, with its registered office at 5 Piccadilly Place, Manchester. The agency’s office address is Colony, Piccadilly Place, 5 Aytoun Street, M1 3BR. It says it is ISO 14001 certified and works remote first, drawing on a vetted network of freelancers who live in several time zones for international projects. It does not publish a headcount.

What to ask before you appoint them

• Which named people from its freelance network will run your project, and will the same producer stay with you from pitch to on-site?
• Which of its published budget bands is closest to your event, and what did that band include or leave out (venue hire is included in some and excluded in others)?
• Can you see a current ISO 14001 certificate, and will your event get a carbon footprint report like the Metsä awards did?
• If you use its bespoke registration site, who holds the attendee data and in what format is it returned after the event?
• For a stand, can it reuse panels across several shows as it did for Three Business?
