We understand
the joy of delivering successful Events
It's an exciting challenge that we share a passion for
There is nothing better than busy isles, a long queue on opening morning or full conference room. But let’s face it, running events is consuming, stressful and challenging and they don’t all work out as we planned.
Sure, we have some amazing ones that we’re immensely proud of. For these, our ambition is to accelerate growth. But for every great one, there are those we need to give a little more TLC too. Oh, and let’s not forget about the launch ideas we promised. So why don’t we get on and just do it.
Because the reality is, we’re often preoccupied with the day-to-day delivery of our events.
The list just goes on and on, and it gets even more intense during the build up to big events. So what happens? The time given over to working on developing event strategy, a comprehensive plan with actions to grow, develop or launch events is just not given the priority it needs or deserves.

David Chapple Founder
It sounds cliché but what has given me the most joy in my working career is leading and inspiring my event teams to surpass their goals. It wasn’t always easy mind. Some most definitely gave me goosebumps on opening mornings where with others, let’s just say I learnt a whole lot more.
So, when creating Event iQ, it’s this elated opening morning sensation of an event expertly executed that has driven me forward and the desire to pass my knowledge on so others can experience these tingling moments more frequently.
I am therefore thrilled to share with clients, my experiences, across 200+ events, multiple launches and competitive races, distilled into the eight modules of the Event Development Framework.
These best practice processes, principles and strategies have served me well and delivered significant growth, great launches, relocations and development of many different types of events over my last 25 years.
