Creaplan Group awarded Best International Producer in the US
Creaplan’s continued commitment to quality, creativity and sustainable innovation did not go unnoticed on the other side of the Atlantic. Exhibitor Group, the reference in the US event industry, named Creaplan Group as Best International Exhibit Producer 2023.
Exhibitor Group
Exhibitor Group is the publisher of Exhibitor Magazine, the renowned American magazine full of inspiration on trade shows, experiential marketing, and corporate events. Among other things, Exhibitor Group is known for its FindIt - Top 40, an annual list of the forty top-rated US event producers. Many multinationals turn to this list when looking for a reliable and high-quality partner. In selecting the Top 40, six additional laureates are awarded in different categories.
Best International Exhibit Producer
Creaplan took home the top prize in the category Best International Exhibit Producer. This international award recognises companies outside of the United States that deliver quality and creativity, offer uncontested service, keep sustainability in mind, excel in experiential marketing and make innovative choices in terms of material and technology. Aspects such as thought leadership, operations and entrepreneurship were also included in the assessment.
This award reinforces our ambition to grow further in Europe and gives us a direct link to the US market, which also often needs to realise projects in Europe.”
Michael Debaveye, CEO
A panel of jurors assessed Creaplan Group based on a thorough evaluation process with more than 50 criteria, including our stand portfolio, our technical capacities, and client testimonials. This is the first international award for Creaplan Group - Creaplan’s individual stand activities have won awards in the World Exhibition Stand Awards in the past.
Foothold in the US
Creaplan Group CEO Michael Debaveye travelled to the EXHIBITORLIVE event in Louisville to receive the award and strengthen relationships with US partners. Michael recounts, “With the Creaplan Group, we realise projects all over Europe from our head offices in Belgium and the Netherlands; Creaplan for the stands and interior part, For Live for the live events. This award reinforces our ambition to grow further in Europe and gives us a direct link to the US market, which also often needs to realise projects in Europe.”
Hard work pays off
COO Vincent Lievens explains, “This award is a welcome recognition of our hard work over the last few years, and the result of our investments in people and innovation. We would like to thank our clients for their positive words that contributed to the award, and of course the entire Creaplan Group team for their hard work. We look forward to what the future holds.” What lies ahead for now? A continued focus on innovation, more impactful stands and events, and above all our mission to continue to impress and entertain visitors on the show floor and beyond.
