Based in Belfast, MayWe reaps many benefits as a creative events management agency. The UK is a global hub for events, with lively cities, world class venues, and the robust infrastructure needed to support major events. Additionally, the UK has rich cultural heritage and a long-standing reputation for vibrant creative industries, which creates endless opportunities for collaboration and enables MayWe to access the range of talent and skills it needs to elevate its events. On this, Sarah-Jane comments, “We’ve been fortunate to produce major creative festivals in the UK, ranging from Platinum Jubilee celebrations to large cultural events that focus on the rich heritage of local places and people.” At MayWe, the small team of staff are a priority. The business strongly believes in putting people first, so it works hard to support its employees by helping them progress and grow into the company. For this reason, it creates tailored professional development plans to suit their individual long-term goals and interests. SarahJane adds, “We are in the process of gaining accreditation as a Diversity Mark employer and as such are consulting on initiatives to improve staff wellbeing and support our staff not just in the workplace but at home too.” With people at the forefront of everything it does, MayWe is proud to be a community focused business. For three consecutive years, it has been awarded the Community Support Award in the Conference News Agency Awards. The company has a strong ethos of corporate social responsibility and social value, so it tailors its events in order to help other businesses achieve their social value goals. As with many other companies in the events industry, MayWe is currently aiming to alter its operations to increase its sustainability. For example, it plans to adopt newer technologies and work to lower its carbon footprint in the future. “There is some fantastic work being done across the sector in this respect and shared learning taking place,” explains Sarah-Jane. “It’s a new element of our work and one we’re excited to explore; we’ve been to some fantastic industry events this year that have equipped us with the tools and suppliers we need to make a change.” As a result of its outstanding bespoke events management services, MayWe has been awarded Most Client-Focused Event Management Company, Northern Ireland, in the UK Enterprise Awards 2023. In the coming year, MayWe has a multitude of client events and projects coming up. The company is also excited to launch its new elevated brand. “For us the revised brand is a symbol of our growth over the past 4 years and brings with it a lot of excitement and renewed enthusiasm for what the future holds,” SarahJane comments.
