For those just joining us in the wonderful world of Foster Fischer and Simmonds LLP events, the carpark has begun to take on a new life in creating a magical red carpet moment: meet the full team, the agencies, elephants and the always eager Maverick in [Episode 1: Concrete, carpets and creativity](https://iceblog.ice-hub.biz/blog/goinglive1?utm_campaign=Increase%2520brand%2520awareness%2520of%2520ICEAWARDS%2520&%2520Conference%2520UK%2520&%2520Germany&utm_content=229188965&utm_medium=social&utm_source=linkedin&hss_channel=lcp-10079414).

In Episode 2, plan B is never enough and it’s time for plan D! As Emma leads the in-house events team over, under, round and through anything in their path, they let nothing get in their way on the final push to ‘go live’ of the Annual New Partner Celebration in Rome. From the arrival of more elephants to topless palm trees shipped from the Caribbean, it is problem solving on steroids!

 

### **Going live in** **…..** **….7 days, 5 hours and 12 mins**

 

For any of you out there contemplating entering the next ICEAWARDS, not sure Emma is on to a winner here, but if you think you have the makings of a great entry for Most Sustainable Event of the Year Award we’d love to hear from you.
