Client: Ulnooweg
Project: 2018 Ulnooweg Entrepreneur Awards
Focus: Event Management, Branding, Print & Digital Materials

RISE Results handled all planning, nominations, execution, and branding for Ulnoowegs 2018 Entrepreneur Awards. This event, consisting of day-long speaker series and full awards banquet, takes the opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the success of Aboriginal businesses in Atlantic Canada. Celebrating these accomplishments is an integral part of the process of building a stronger economy for future generations!

 

Challenge

To take a simple awards ceremony for Atlantic Canada’s indigenous entrepreneur community and make it special, something people want to be part of and strive to work towards being included in, thereby strengthening the entrepreneurial spirit in the community.

Solution

Wrap it in prestige.  We created a unified brand for the event and enrobed it in social commentary, with one theme being the Red Dress and another year, Resilience. Our efforts for the biennial event include the following assets and services:

Nomination forms

Website landing page

Printed programs

Table cards & Event signage

Event logistics & guest coordination

Room design & setup

Photography & Videography recording

Live streaming

Result

The gala experience of nominations and recognition within the regional Indigenous community has been amplified, shown most clearly in this example: the year after we held the event in NFLD, nominations in that province were increased fivefold, as a direct result of wishing to be included in the overall event. Our videographer captured that year’s event.
