emc3

You get strategy, content, creative design and technical production from one team, so a conference or partner event does not have to be split across separate planners, designers and production crews. If your brief includes carbon or inclusion targets, emc3 can measure them through From Now, the sustainability consultancy it acquired, and report the scores back to you. emc3 Ltd is based at Television Centre in White City, west London, and has a sister company, emc3 Inc, registered in Boston.

Services

You can hire emc3 for a single strand or the whole event, because it publishes its services in four groups.

• Strategy: planning workshops, market and audience research, attendee journey mapping, data interpretation, and measurement and impact analysis.
• Content: theming and messaging, agenda curation, copywriting, event marketing, pre and post event communications, speaker and talent sourcing, and social media management.
• Creative: event websites and platforms, brand design, immersive design, activations, video and motion design.
• Event delivery: event management and logistics, registration, in-person, hybrid and virtual events, technical production (sound, lighting, HD video and live streaming), and custom exhibition stands.

For venue finding, emc3 says it works with a sourcing partner, MYVA, and handles the search, negotiation and logistics. On sustainability, it offers strategy, DEIA advice, supply chain advice, waste reduction and carbon measurement through From Now. emc3 is also part of the emc3 Collective, which groups emc3, From Now, the brand experience agency BEG and the healthcare events agency emc3 Life.

Sectors and clients

You can check its fit against your own sector, since most of the case studies emc3 publishes are for technology companies, with healthcare, payments and fleet management also represented. Named clients on its site include HP, Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn, HubSpot (INBOUND), TikTok Shop, Rapid7, Recorded Future and National Instruments. The home page quotes clients by name, but these are the agency’s own selections.

Recent work

The case studies show how emc3 handles short lead times, large attendances and measured outcomes.

• ACI Worldwide, Payments Unleashed EMEA 26. A one-day London event for banking and payments leaders with a short lead time. emc3 toured several London spaces before choosing 12th Knot and London Hilton Bankside, built an LED stage and adapted it for a visually impaired speaker. The agency reports more than 200 attendees against a target of 150, and a From Now audit of 0.64 tonnes CO₂e with an 81% environmental score.
• British Society for Rheumatology, BSR Conference 2026. A hybrid annual conference that emc3 says it has run for BSR for five years, with more than 2,000 attendees, 200 speakers, 450+ presentations and 70+ livestreams over three days, delivered by emc3 Life.
• Motive Vision 26. A three-day user conference in Nashville with keynotes, bootcamps and an expo. emc3 reports 1,200 attendees against an expected 900, more than 50 room signage screens, seven digital totems, and 98% of materials reused, donated or repurposed afterwards.
• LinkedIn Talent Connect. A London conference for 3,000 talent acquisition leaders, where emc3 designed the networking space and quieter product breakouts. The agency says it has worked with LinkedIn for over a decade on events of 30 to 3,000 people.

Company

You are dealing with an established company. Companies House shows emc3 Ltd (company 04427182) was incorporated on 29 April 2002, and the agency says it has more than 25 years of event experience. Its privacy notice gives the registered office as Soho Works, Level 7, 2 Television Centre, 101 Wood Lane, London W12 7FR. It also lists emc3 Inc at 399 Boylston Street, Boston. emc3 says it is a certified B Corporation and has published an impact report. It also says it holds the King’s Award for Enterprise and was named Agency of the Year in 2024 and Global Agency of the Year in 2025. emc3 also runs Pulse, a series of meet-ups for event professionals in New York, Miami and Austin. It does not publish a team size, minimum budget or rates.

What to ask before you appoint them

• Will your contract be with emc3 Ltd in London or emc3 Inc in Boston, and which team in the Collective (emc3, emc3 Life or BEG) runs your event?
• If you want a carbon figure like the 0.64 tonnes reported for ACI, what does From Now include in the footprint, and is the audit priced separately?
• For venue finding through MYVA, who is paid any venue commission, and will you see every venue on the shortlist?
• On a hybrid event like BSR’s, which parts of the streaming and platform work are done in-house and which are subcontracted?
• emc3 publishes no rates or minimum budget, so ask for a fee breakdown that separates strategy, creative, production and management time.
