Project Description
Grant Thornton entrusted our company with the organization of a prestigious anniversary celebration, marking 25 years of excellence in tax, audit, and advisory services. To create a truly immersive experience, we transformed the Athinais Cultural Center into a realistic airport and airplane setting, reflecting the event’s theme, “Fly to Success.” The evening began with guests arriving at the “airport”, where they passed through a uniquely designed entrance, setting the tone for the journey ahead. As attendees mingled, they enjoyed photo opportunities in front of a custom backdrop and were welcomed with refreshing cocktails. Once all guests were seated in the “airplane,” the event officially began, led by Kostas Giannakidis, a renowned Greek journalist and radio producer. The celebration continued with a special keynote speech from Stavros Anastasiadis, an experienced pilot, who shared insights on life in the air, drawing parallels between aviation and business success. To commemorate this milestone, a grand birthday cake was presented, marking 25 years of Grant Thornton’s achievements. Additionally, 10 lucky employees were awarded exclusive gifts, further enhancing the celebratory spirit. The evening concluded with a delightful lunch and an energetic party, bringing colleagues and industry leaders together in an atmosphere of appreciation, excitement, and celebration.
