Consulting, design and production: an integrated Campus offering

Historically, the events market has been divided into two distinct segments: venues and agencies. However, the trend of recent years has blurred the lines, with some agencies acquiring venues that they dedicate exclusively to their event offering. But not onlyt...

Ever since it opened its doors 15 years ago, the Serge Kampf Les Fontaines Campus has made a name for itself: an eco-responsible location, exclusively reserved for companies, combining a historic château cultivating the French art of living, a high-tech forum with exceptional infrastructure, and accommodation nestled in the heart of a 52-hectare park, a veritable green lung just 25 minutes from Paris.

But more than just a place, Les Fontaines is an experience, a unique moment to offer companies. To this end, the Campus provides an integrated service for companies wishing to mobilize their teams/employees. Whether it's an event to mobilize around the company's transformation, a new product launch, or a training session, the Campus offers a unique package. Unique because it combines 3 areas of expertise:

• Management of an exceptional all-in-one venue, 100% dedicated to corporate events
• Corporate events (provided by an Event Manager for each event) to support the customer in logistical organization (registrations, venues, audiovisual, catering, hotels, transport, team-building) and also in content creation (graphic charter, key messages, agency roadbook).
• Consulting in people management and transformation, drawing on skills from Capgemini's Consulting division.

We believe that an event held at Les Fontaines has a before and an after. Ideally, it is part of a corporate transformation. It must change the behavior of participants, who must be different after than before. At the very least, they have acquired technical know-how and become aware of the need to develop their interpersonal skills. At best, they have triggered a change in their understanding of the company's business models and the market in which it operates. And, indeed, the way in which they must integrate all this and interact differently.

" A transformation project cannot exist without people coming together, sharing and exchanging," explains Bertrand Cheyrou, President of the Serge Kampf Les Fontaines Campus. " And it's because know-how around taking people into account is one of the Capgemini Group's credos, that we want to put our skills at the service of our clients, to design and produce events, in a location whose potential and possibilities no longer hold any secrets for us. "

This role of orchestra conductor at the heart of an ecosystem is assumed by a close-knit team, experienced in professional events, and coming from complementary backgrounds such as consulting, events management, internal communications and the hotel industry. It's this multi-faceted approach that often gives events "made by Les Fontaines " such added value.

" We see ourselves as the customer's allies ," adds Bertrand. " We seek to be transparent and close. That's why our work is based on strong listening skills and controlled interaction: we take the time to build, version after version, the event that will perfectly meet the expectations of the executives who call on us. "

The Campus's innovative services in audiovisual animation, communications tools, construction of ephemeral structures, creation of environments, cohesion activities and receptions can then be implemented to give coherence to the event while keeping costs under control. 

The Campus has carved out a special place for itself in the world of professional events, cultivating its uniqueness by offering advice, design and production all in one place.

Beyond the enchanting site with infrastructures perfectly adapted to the organization of professional events, it is indeed its consulting center and customer support that will be a guarantee of success for your next event projects. In fact, the Campus' expertise in this area was rewarded with the SYT d'OR 2018 in the 'Concept de la Rencontre' category.
