Networking Lunch (Raya Open House)
ABOUT THE EVENT
The Touch Group Raya Celebration was a grand Networking Lunch and Raya Open House designed to bring together 500 to 550 guests including clients, partners, and dignitaries. Organized collaboratively by Touch Group, EPOMS, and Tidals Group, the event aimed to celebrate the Hari Raya festive season while fostering business relationships and networking opportunities. With three organizing parties involved, seamless coordination was critical. The event also carried a unique highlight which is a royal attendance by the Sultan of Pahang, who participated in a karaoke session, adding prestige and an unforgettable moment to the celebration.
EXECUTIONS
Planning & Setup
With three parties involved on the client side (Touch Group, EPOMS, and Tidals Group), we initially anticipated coordination challenges. However, because everyone had clearly defined roles, communication became surprisingly smooth. The client teams provided fast responses and quick feedback on most items, allowing us to move forward efficiently without delays.
Program Management
The a.c.e team managed a wide range of program elements, including rundown management, screen content, MC coordinating, decoration, 360 video booth, registration, protocol control, and guest flow. Despite the large guest count of 500 to 550 pax, guest flow and registration were executed smoothly, with protocol control carefully managed especially important given the presence of royal dignitaries.
Technical Support
We provided a full technical production package tailored to the event's unique needs, including AV system, technical rider for the live band, switcher for LED (venue-provided LED wall), and live feed system. The live band performed seamlessly thanks to our precise tech rider execution, and the live feed ensured all guests had a clear view of stage activities.
Networking & Dinner
A standard networking lunch became extraordinary when the Sultan of Pahang attended the event and participated in a karaoke session. We prepared a yellow sponge for the microphone which is a small but critical detail requested for royal hygiene and comfort. This level of attentiveness ensured the royal guests could sing comfortably and safely. The karaoke session became the highlight of the event, creating a memorable, joyful atmosphere that guests talked about long after.
