Matter Live
Bringing an interactive experience to:
- conventions
- conferences
- congresses
- sales meetings
The challenge for your participants is how to find the right balance between content and personal growth, on the one hand, and networking on the other. Our collaborative multi-client sessions encourage your participants to work together to solve problems and to learn new ideas – working side-by-side as if they were colleagues.
Internal conferences benefit from the same collaborative approach, breaking down silos and creating a “joined up” team.
We help you design and deliver an engaging, collaborative experience for your delegates and participants. Traditional conference presentations and panels can provide a useful platform for keynote speakers and recognized experts, but a conference that fails to involve participants and create the opportunity for them to learn from each other isn’t providing a complete experience.
We work with major annual industry-specific conventions as well as company-hosted client conferences to turn participants from spectators into protagonists. As a result, participants:
- learn from each other
- network at a much higher level
- develop insights from group problem-solving
- go home having figured out “what this means to me”.
Services
Highly-interactive conference environment
We work with you to identify topics and challenges that will benefit from interactive workshops. We then design and facilitate a workshop program – as a distinct part of your broader program – to engage participants in brief (2-3 hr) sessions. Our best sessions often follow large plenary sessions and provide an opportunity for in-depth discussion and networking.
Plenary and panel design
We help design interactivity into sessions that, by their nature, are more static than workshops.
Graphic Facilitation & Modeling
Our team includes graphic recorders who illustrate conference sessions ‘live’ by building real-time mind-maps, providing participants with an engaging take-away and a starting point for further discussion. (See Matter Look)

A leading technology and outsourcing company
Our Role
This industry leader holds a major client conference every Autumn. We were asked to design and facilitate an interactive plenary session to bring energy and innovation to the conference program. At the same time, we designed and facilitated a much smaller session for the VIPs among the participants who represent the key growth target of this company. The smaller session led to considerable insights and the building of a deeper, more constructive relationship between this service provider and its most important clients.
Both these sessions were supported by our graphic facilitators who created powerful take-aways that illustrated the key insights that emerged from the collaborative work.
