Bader Media Entertainment CIC is a production company with a combined passion for filmmaking and protecting the environment. Profits made from projects fun own community interest activities and external charities that focus on combatting litter worldwide. Based in the UK, they produce high-quality creative content for entertainment, community interest and to promote their mission to protect the environment.

Aim of the event

The objective for Bader Media Entertainment CIC was to host a film premiere for their latest feature ‘The Shimian’. The clients were keen on making the evening a great experience for their guests and one that would make them feel the glitz and glamour of a Hollywood premiere.

Why Millennium Point for The Shimian World Premiere?

Our clients are local filmmakers to the Birmingham area and had previously visited Millennium Point’s Auditorium for film screenings. They chose Millennium Point to show The Shimian because the Director had been impressed with the size of the screen and the condition of the Auditorium, as well as the space available below on event space Platform.

Another reason was location, Millennium Point is close to Birmingham City Centre and central train stations such as New Street Station, a bonus for guests arriving from other cities.

Challenges and Solutions

The challenge for Bader Media Entertainment CIC was to find a venue that also were event organisers to ensure the event was a success. The events team were on hand to help with the organisation before and after the event.

Our team developed an events plan that would make the evening an exciting experience for our client’s guests. We suggested ideas along the way how the team could help, and what to do with the space to make it atmospheric and professional.

Particularly, our in-house AV team, which comes standard with most bookings, worked closely with theirs to ensure the best visual and audio experience for the premiere.

AV Equipment and Service

As it was a film premiere it was vital that the screen and sound for the film was perfect. Our AV team worked closely with the client to test visuals and sound to ensure it met expectations and needs. This was through screening tests and run throughs so changes could be made to really give the film the wow factor on the Auditorium screen.

Bader Media Entertainment CIC have received feedback since the premiere on how good the sound and visuals were.

Working with the Millennium Point Team

Our events team had received positive reviews from working with Bader Media Entertainment CIC. The Event Operations team were professional, pleasant & friendly on the night so guests could enjoy their evening. Behind the scenes, the Events team ensured the planning, organisation and communication was all sorted throughout so the event could really give the wow factor. Along with this Marketing worked with the Director to promote the event and film to give it the limelight the film deserved.

How was the client’s experience of Millennium Point?

James Peakman, Director of Bader Media Entertainment CIC said

‘It was an absolute pleasure working with Millennium Point, and I literally can’t fault the staff or place itself. They were so accommodating and gave us attention to detail that I would struggle to find at another venue. The premiere itself was a huge success for us and has opened doors for further movies. The feedback from the guests about the event has been excellent. I would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff at Millennium Point for being so professional and welcoming, and now we will have to make another movie so we can host another premiere at Millennium Point’.

Grants up to £20,000 can be applied for here, you have until the 2^nd December to apply, good luck!

Endless possibilities with STEM

Over the past five years, the Millennium Point Charitable Trust has awarded over £2 million to charities, not-for-profits, community groups and schools to further STEM education. Millennium Point Charitable Trust has previously seen the rewarding outcome of past projects such as ‘Breaking the Barriers to STEM’ with a fantastic STEM garden. Ahead Partnership engaged students at their Digitech Festival with inspiring guest speeches and activities from STEM industries. Ark Tindall Primary transformed an outside space into a Science Area to enhance their STEM curriculum.

Last year Millennium Point Trust saw 100 applications from schools and not-for-profit organisations all aiming to recieve a share of the grant money to better STEM education in the region.

Vanessa Currie, Head of People, Learning and Development at Millennium Point comments:

“We are pleased to announce the latest round of grant funding from the Millennium Point Charitable Trust.

The West Midlands is the largest hub for science and innovation outside of London, with the youngest population in Europe and one of the highest percentiles of STEM graduates in the UK.

With many schools being forced to cut costs and resources to deliver their curriculums, we risk seeing the skills gap widen as less children are engaged in STEM, which is why this initiative is crucial now, more than ever.”

Award-winning charity in the heart of Birmingham

All funding given by Millennium Point Charitable Trust is made possible by the commercial activity that takes place in the landmark Millennium Point building. It all feeds back into the charitable trust, enabling to be donated and invested in STEM-related organisations, projects, and initiatives.

When booking events with Millennium Point you are widening your CSR and supporting the local region. Find out how and more about our unique event spaces here.

Planning a corporate event takes skill, time and planning. From coming up with an engaging idea, to finding a date that works for everyone, inviting guests, and finding a venue that ticks all of the boxes, there’s a lot of leg work that goes into it.

The corporate events team at Millennium Point have worked with businesses across the globe to orchestrate corporate events for over 20 years, so we know exactly what it takes for an event to go off without a hitch. This is why we’ve pulled together a guide to help you plan a business event to remember!

In this guide, you’ll learn:

What defines a corporate event
The benefits of a corporate event
The different types of corporate events
A corporate event planning checklist
How to choose the right venue for your corporate event
Why host your event at Millennium Point?

What is a corporate event?

A corporate event is quite simply a private event that is paid for by an organisation for its clients and/or employees. From offering networking opportunities to educating colleagues or clients, launching new products or services and even Christmas parties, there are a number of reasons for a company to host a corporate event.

The benefits of corporate events

It is no secret that corporate events cost time and money, so understanding the benefits before investing is vital.

Create additional revenue streams

When event planning is done properly, you can sell ad space, VIP tickets, branded merchandise and event sponsorship, meaning you can earn back what’s been spent, and maybe even make profits from it.

Strengthen team collaboration

Hybrid working is here to stay, with 38% of working adults stating they worked from home in Spring 2022 (ONS). Whilst hybrid working offers a range of work life balance benefits, building a positive workplace culture isn’t always easy. However, when you plan an event, you’ve got all your team in one place.

Educate clients and employees

If you’re launching a new product or service, or you’re revealing a rebrand, a corporate event is a great way to educate your team and customers.

Enhance your marketing efforts

As well as launching new products and services, events serve a brilliant way to market this. When there’s a memorable event, it creates a positive experience that will be associated with your brand in the long term.

Get more insights into your target audience

Corporate events are a great way to get more face to face time with existing and prospective customers, which helps you build rapports. It is also a brilliant way to understand their thoughts and insights on your company and surrounding markets. You can also collect personal details that aren’t always attainable through other marketing efforts.

Choosing the right venue for your corporate event

A lot of components go into finding the perfect location and venue for your event. When looking for a venue, you should do the following:

Find a space that fits your head count – it is easy to see if a space is too small, but you should also ensure it isn’t too big, as your event may look empty even if everyone is there.
Make sure the venue is accessible for all, from wheelchair access to parking and public transport links.
Remember the acoustics! When looking at prospect venues, ask for music and sound to be played in the room, in order to avoid any embarrassing situations.
Read venue testimonials and reviews.
Ask for a breakdown of all the fees.
Pick a venue that suits your brand’s image.
Consider having a quiet room or green room for employees and guests.
Think about the food and drink you want to serve and see if the venue can cater.
Think green and sustainable – where possible, ask venue managers about their CSR initiatives
Choose a location with good transport links (such as Birmingham!)

Helping education and communities across Birmingham and the wider region

As we wish to maximise the impact of our grants, we encourage grant applicants to apply for smaller grants of between £1,000 and £5,000. This will mean that we can potentially help more organisations. There will still be the opportunity for a few larger grants (of up to £20,000) to be given but in the main we will be concentrating on helping the wider community with smaller grants.

Along with the grants scheme there is also the Millennium Point Trust Scholarship which funds one young person’s undergraduate degree each year at Birmingham City University. You can find out more about our scholarships here.
