European CEO of the Year Awards 2024

24. EU Business News- Q1 2024 Jun24158 It’s hard to imagine a more dynamic and fast-evolving industry than event management. Companies must keep up with new client demands constantly, as well as shifts in technology and sustainable practices. What’s more, every element of an event must come together without a hitch to provide a truly unforgettable experience. Under Founder Lukas Schuetz, Kesch Event & Promotion GmbH doesn’t succeed despite these challenges, it thrives on them. Since 2011, Kesch Event & Promotion GmbH has been a rapidly growing presence in the event management space. It’s driven by the love of brands, the love of the industry, and the entrepreneurship Lukas Schuetz was born with. Highprofile brands such as Huawei, Coca Cola, and A1 have relied on the expertise, passion, and tight coordination Kesch’s team brings to every event. With an office in Vienna and an office in Zurich, in operation for two years now, Kesch offers a comprehensive suite of event management services. The team is a pool of eminent talent and knowledge for event planning, brand activation, promotion campaigns, and experiential marketing. The company’s scope incorporates national and multinational businesses spanning many industries, and much of their past work has served the technology, automotive, fashion, and consumer goods industries, including well-known brands with global reach. “Our area of expertise lies in our ability to blend creativity with strategic planning. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail, ensuring that every event or campaign is not on visually stunning, but also aligned with our clients’ business objectives.” Kesch takes the legwork out of events, managing every aspect of the process from start to finish, guaranteeing memorable, impactful occasions with seamless execution. The team aligns every move and interaction with its core values of innovation, reliability, and passion. It pushes boundaries wherever it is able, while seeing budgets as a creative challenge rather than a hinderance. Delivering groundbreaking, quality work within budget is the mantra at Kesch Event & Promotion GmbH, to which plenty of satisfied clients will attest. As the company grows, it aims to become the go-to partner for powerful brand experiences in Europe. It stays ahead of the game through a combination of continuous, proactive professional development and honing its offering in line with industry trends. Approaching new clients, in Lukas’s words, “involves a combination of strategic planning, personalised service, and a commitment to understanding the unique needs of each client.” Kesch’s method involves thorough research to understand a potential client’s industry, target audience, and objectives. A proposal is then customised to meet its needs. Next is the collaborative planning stage, during which the team tailors every minute detail of an event to reflect its brand, objectives, and values, involving clients in the process to ensure the best result. Under Lukas’s customer-first stewardship, the company treats every new as the unique and distinguished market presence they are. This care and attention to client satisfaction drives the team to maintain open, transparent communication and engage in post-event follow-ups. Lukas encapsulates this by saying, “we keep our clients involved throughout the project, seeking their feedback and approval at key stages. This ensures that the final outcome aligns with their expectations.” “At Kesch Event & Promotion GmbH, we create unforgettable brand experiences. We want to make brands come alive.” The events and promotion industry is currently in a state of dynamic transformation, owing to several significant trends and changes. Technological advancements such as augmented and virtual reality and artificial intelligence are rapidly evolving events and their planning stages. Hybrid events are also shaking the scene as livestreamed occasions become ever more mainstream, as well as clients requesting sustainable materials and reduced waste. Kesch takes these challenges in stride, seeing them as exciting opportunities to grow, develop its offering, and stand side-by-side with innovative industry leaders. Under Lukas, the team comes together with defined roles, mutual support, and a shared creative vision. Since childhood, he has been fascinated with surprising and inspiring others, and he knew that event management and promotion was his calling. With partner Thomas Kenyeri, he began the business with the goal of becoming the go-to events management company in Austria with a strong presence throughout Europe. As the company strides into its future, Lukas intends to drive this European expansion, as well as ongoing growth, professional development, and trend adoption. The goal is to build a legacy of client satisfaction and renowned excellence. The company is his mark on the industry, and that mark grows bigger with every satisfied client, every brand promoted, and every unforgettable event.
