(OUR) DIFFERENCE

Responsibility.

Considering that the Caucasian 60-year-old man is not the only one with an interesting story to tell, as is often seen on virtual or in-person stages, the experts at adn represent a world that shines with diversity.

The CSR calendar also highlights this crucial aspect and our mission to change the world, one connection at a time.

Proximity.

Thanks to a tailor-made approach developed for each of your activities - employees, clients, or members - whether in a hybrid, online, or in-person format, we always start with the most important: your needs.

As close to our talents as our clients, we put our content expertise at your service to enhance your events.

 International. 

Already having offices on two continents - France and Quebec - we want to strengthen business relationships between these two regions.

Furthermore, we believe in the power of content to transcend borders. Our experts are based in the Belle Province (Montreal, Quebec) but also in France (Paris, Nice), the United States (Boston, Stanford), and Belgium (Ghent), and we offer their services wherever you are.

(OUR) PARTNERS

Our job? You got that right: content . But how do you speak content without everything around it?

 

Design and communication of the event, recommendations for virtual platforms and filming locations, management of logistics and registrations, data compilation, sponsorships, trophies and even gifts to participants: all these aspects are more than ever intimately linked.

 

adn has built a network of handpicked partners to help you create exceptional events, tailor-made and especially created around your needs.
