Our team supports you at every step of event conception and planning. From the initial idea to smooth execution, we empower you to create extraordinary experiences.

The Philosophy

Clarity for
your vision.

It often starts with an idea, a vision, a goal. But how do you execute it successfully? Together we create clarity and a strategy that makes your event unique.

We know events and people

With more than 350 executed events, we know what excites people. Our team approaches every event from the perspective of attendees. Their experience sits at the centre.

Consulting that is a true partnership

Whether a workshop or regular exchange: we are at your side, bring fresh ideas and find the best solution together.

Holistic and strategic

From strategic planning to emotional execution: we combine the rationality of business goals with the power of emotions.

Tailored Support

Workshops & Sparring

Whether strategic planning, creative concept development or ongoing support from an experienced partner, our offerings are as flexible as your requirements.

Event Strategy

The plan before planning begins

We develop a clear event strategy with you: goals, audiences, formats, annual planning and budget allocation. This becomes the foundation for all further decisions.

  • What should the event achieve for your company?
  • Which formats suit your audience and goals?
  • How do you plan events as a strategic instrument rather than a one-off measure?

Perfect for:
Annual planning, budget optimisation and strategic realignment.

References & Feedback

"With PIRATEx we had an agile partner at our side to execute an innovative hybrid event. We benefited enormously from their agility and solution-oriented approach on the ground. A key to the event's success was that PIRATEx worked with our crew as one big team, not as two separate parties."

"I've been working with PIRATEx since mid-2020. They've become my premium partner for all audio-visual production of virtual events. We've delivered large digital trade fairs, conferences and information events together. PIRATEx has supported me brilliantly on every project, conceptually, technically and organisationally, and has always been open to every idea. A very agile and flexible team, and a great fit on a human level too!"

"We know first-hand how complex the technical planning and execution of virtual events can be, and we're very glad it was always in good hands with you. It was a pleasure to work with you, develop ideas for our platform and run the event. Thank you for your advice, the great platform and the consistently friendly atmosphere in our meetings."

"The PIRATEx team supported us at our 1st Douglas Retail Media Summit. The concept, organisation and technical execution were excellent. The team communicates quickly and gave us great advice. The event was a great success and I can recommend PIRATEx without reservation."

"We took away so many great approaches from your workshop for our team. It was exactly the enriching spark we were hoping for: a shared 'organiser language'. With the momentum it created, we made real progress on our open projects during the remaining team days."

For HANNOVER MESSE 2024 we worked with PIRATEx for the first time and were immediately won over by the great team and professional collaboration! Both the design and execution of the startup stage programmes, and the wide range of tasks around students and young people, were handled brilliantly. Many thanks. We'd love to work together again.

The concept workshop was a creative ignition for us: a key inspiration for the successful design of our "EWR-Zukunftsforum'24". Many thanks for the smooth and warm collaboration. We're already looking forward to the next project together!

Working with PIRATEx was extremely positive from the start. The team stood out through their professionalism, dedication and outstanding communication. The day PIRATEx organised didn't just meet our expectations. It exceeded them. Thank you! We look forward to many more events together!!
