STARK continues its expansion with the acquisition of event company ICE-Management. The new addition will help strengthen STARK’s position within the event and communication market.
Former ICE-Management owner Wendela Sanne Öhrnell and project manager Pernilla Bylund are now a part of the STARK team. Welcome!
One of the highlights of the past season was the 350-year anniversary of the West Sweden Chamber of Commerce. See the film from the Gala Soiree, where the prominent guests gathered for an evening of music and entertainment – arranged by STARK.

On November 24th (Stockholm) and 29th (Gothenburg), dogs and their masters were invited to the exclusive event launch for Royal Canin’s new dog food “X-Small”. In a luxurious lounge environment, they were offered sparkling champagne and refreshing water from the DogBar. The DogSpa – featuring nail clipping, massage and vet check up – was, however, reserved exclusively for the four-legged visitors. Some famous faces were spotted in the audience and a few paparazzis were seen hovering in the background. Most importantly, the dogs and their owners enjoyed it – and so did we!

On November 9th, STARK produced LM Ericsson Capital Markets Day 2011 in Stockholm. Among the 200 guests were industry analysts, investors, media and share holders who spent the morning in Kistamässan listening to management presentations and the afternoon in Ericsson Studio participating in technical seminars. To round off the day a buffet was served along with entertainment by Latin the mood and singer Simone Moreno. The event itself was a great success – some said it was the best Capital Markets Day ever.

Finally, after almost a year of planning and meetings with different suppliers, it was time for the event of the year, the 350-year anniversary of the West Sweden Chamber of Commerce at the Swedish Congress Centre in Gothenburg. A gala evening with famous artists, delicious cuisine, music and entertainment, ending in an overwhelming party for the 800 guests. Thank you, Västsvenska Handelskammaren, for confiding in STARK!

The Ericsson’s customer seminar at the Broadband World Forum in Paris clearly visualized that “The cloud is the word” with powerpoint presentations streamed to touchpads and smart phones and projected in tv-screens and in environments from different time periods: the 1930s, 50s, 70s, 90s and 2010.

Once a year it happens. The All Employee Meeting 2011 for Ericsson, Stockholm employees.

This time also offering a unique experience; 5,200 people learning to line dance in three minutes – together.The custom-built round centre stage with four giant screens and additional LED-light to set the mood, provided the base for a close and personal experience for everyone present.

In June, more than 400 distributors from the SKF Service Division gathered at the Fairmont Hotel in Monaco. The theme of the conference was The Power to Win. And a winning concept it was, ending with a glorious gala evening. STARK designed the entire venue and was in charge of all technical matters. We also produced content, such as starter films and and an introfilm. To the delight of the participants, our Meet-App was especially designed to facilitate their stay in Monaco, with short cuts to conference details and local practicalities.
