Dyson

Spectacular corporate hybrid event

Dyson is an international technology company that designs and manufactures household appliances, with many locations around the world. Every month, the company holds a town hall meeting to connect employees, share results, explain the strategic direction and strengthen the bond between management and employees.

To save time, effort, costs and CO₂ emissions, Dyson chose to limit international travel to Amsterdam. That is why Dyson brought in Valo Online Events to develop a professional livestream solution. This allowed all employees worldwide to take part, regardless of their location.

Dyson wanted more than a standard online meeting. The goal was to create a spectacular corporate event, inspired by the look and dynamics of television talk shows, without compromising on ease of use and professionalism.

A format inspired by TV talk shows

A professional studio setup was built with multi-camera direction and multiple screens. These displayed presentations, video roll-ins, remote speakers and live interactions. The executive board and management were physically present in the studio and presented to their Dutch colleagues, who were also on site in Amsterdam. Thanks to the live broadcast, all employees worldwide could watch along.

Interaction via Microsoft Teams Live Events and Mentimeter

The livestream was broadcast online via Microsoft Teams Live Events, so employees could join easily and securely within their familiar work environment.

In addition, Mentimeter was used to create extra interaction and engagement at specific moments in the program.

This approach offers clear advantages:

  • No more international travel to Amsterdam

  • Significant cost savings and a lower environmental impact

  • High employee engagement worldwide

  • A professional, interactive and scalable event format

  • Recordings available for watching back at a later time

A connecting and accessible atmosphere

Tight direction, music and a dynamic pace gave the town hall meeting a warm and accessible feel. This strengthened the sense of connection between employees, despite the physical distance.
