Europalco recently demonstrated its vast experience in event production with the successful execution of the Renault Group Convention, hosted at the MH Atlantic Hotel in Peniche, Portugal. In close partnership with agency Prestígio for Brands, the convention brought together around 300 participants for two distinct programs, a press presentation and an internal meeting, under the unifying theme “Shaping the Future Together.”
Europalco, celebrating its 28th anniversary this year, provided a comprehensive range of production services during the event. The company delivered AV solutions, provided carefully selected furniture, executed a refined stage design, and implemented automation systems. A central feature of the production was the impressive display setup. Secondary screens complemented the main mobile screens, each a Ledwall P3,9 with dimensions of 6m by 4m, designed to enhance the viewing experience for all attendees.
The highlight of the Renault Group Convention was the stunning stage entrance. Europalco created an immersive experience by implementing LEDWall panels with automated horizontal movement that opened to reveal the speakers and, of course, the stars of the convention, the impressive Renault models. This portal of light and technology brought dynamism and surprise, capturing attention during every presentation.
The video processing and show control were managed through the Analogway Pulse 2 system, ensuring reliable performance throughout the proceedings. This technical setup supported the event’s seamless execution and reinforced the company’s commitment to delivering high-quality production solutions.
Another notable visual element was the integration of automated features. The event showcased horizontal movement rails and robotic lighting provided by the Ayrton Zonda 3 FX. These elements not only enhanced the visual appeal of the stage but also underlined Europalco’s continuous efforts to advance its production capabilities. This commitment is evident in the careful investment in automation technologies that set the stage for further developments in future projects.
Additionally, they managed the carpentry flooring and installed cut-pile carpeting to complete the setup. The carefully chosen furniture reinforced the event’s sophisticated atmosphere. Europalco selected the DSW chairs and Totem LED wall elements for their functional design and seamless integration with the overall layout. These pieces and custom carpentry work created a balanced environment for media presentation needs and internal discussions.
Every event presents its challenges. For this convention, the cart unloading coincided with the ledwall’s opening, which stood out. The team overcame this potential disruption through careful planning and on-site problem-solving, maintaining a smooth, uninterrupted schedule throughout the event. A total of 22 Europalco professionals ensured the event ran smoothly on-site. They completed the assembly in just two days, handling every detail efficiently and precisely.
Collaboration was at the heart of the project. The longstanding partnership between Europalco and agency Prestígio for Brands was evident in the stable and coordinated approach taken throughout the planning and execution phases. This close cooperation facilitated a well-organised event and set the stage for future projects that build on the trust and shared commitment between the two companies.
Pedro Magalhães, CEO of Europalco, remarked: “I want to thank Prestígio for Brands for their trust and for including us in such an outstanding show. This year, we also furthered our commitment to innovation by investing in automation, particularly by introducing new rotating stages that we will soon unveil.”
