Our story
How IGNITE grew: by recommendation
The IGNITE team has worked in live events since 1992 and has produced conferences since 2007; IGNITE Events Ltd was incorporated in 2014 and is part of the IGNITE Group of Companies. Much of our growth has come from recommendation: speakers, promoters and event managers who worked with us once, then took us to their next event, and the one after that.
That includes some of the most demanding stages there are. Since 2007 we have produced events featuring world-famous speakers for audiences of up to 20,000. We build partnerships that last, including a client relationship of two decades with Success Resources.
Today we bring that experience to corporate clients, event agencies, venues and hotels across the UK and Europe, and worldwide through local partners, from our production base and broadcast studio in Watford.
"Every event we take on starts with one question: what does a brilliant result look like for this client? Then we plan backwards from it. We look for what could go wrong long before the day, so the risks are managed quietly in rehearsal and rarely reach the room.
On the day, our job is to make it look effortless, so you can focus on your guests. We measure ourselves by one thing: whether you are absolutely delighted, and whether you would book us again tomorrow."

What you can expect from us
Straight answers
If we don't think we can do something brilliantly, we'll say so rather than take it on.
Only what you need
We recommend and quote for what the outcome needs, and show what each item is for.
Calm under pressure
Last-minute changes are part of live events. Our crew solve them quietly, without fuss in front of your guests.
Your brand first
On your stage, your brand comes first, and every decision we make protects it.
The IGNITE team were professional, well presented, punctual and were flexible and equipped to accommodate our changing needs, when our requirements changed last minute. I confidently recommend them.
Jennifer DavidsonEvents ManagerWe've just completed a four-day programme with over 500 people in the room… our participants didn't want to leave because of the content and environment that's been created by the front end and by IGNITE. We couldn't fault anything.
Mac AttramBusiness strategist and trainerWe have used Sanj and his team on several occasions and have been delighted with the level of service we have experienced and their performance has always stood out as being a cut above the rest. I highly commend them.
