Welcome to our News page. Here you’ll find the latest from Sledge HQ, random musings, a bit of commentary, and our views on the world of live experiences and experiential marketing.

Six Nations

O2 were at Twickenham for the Six Nations!


The rugby has been the main focus for much of the nation over the past few weeks and O2 have been in the thick of it!

The O2 Blueroom was one of the highlights at Twickenham.  O2 customers were able to text a number which allowed them and a friend entrance into the Blueroom.   In there they would find screens showing the game, face painting for all those avid fans, along with interactive games and of course the Sledge team working hard to make it a success.

Crowds gathered at the O2 Blueroom so much so that it ended up being one in, one out, that’s surely a sign of a job well done!




Ownergy Launch

With Altitude 360 as their backdrop OWNERGY, with the help of Sledge launched themselves into the public eye, as the first renewable energy company to offer simple and cost-effective end-to-end delivery of renewable energy systems through the new Government-backed Feed-In Tariffs and Renewable Heat Incentive (that was a bit of a mouthful!)


But seriously, by using Ownergy, customers can be assured not only will they reduce their energy bills but get paid for the renewable energy they generate.

Guests included politicians, industry experts and stakeholders alike.  The response was positive and all the guests seemed genuinely excited about what Ownergy were proposing, which was great.

To bring to life what Ownergy is trying to achieve they were able look out from the 29th Floor (Altitude 360) and use some of London’s most famous landmarks as examples of how renewable energy can be used, which proved for a great visual presentation.

Electric Pedals provided the entertainment for the evening.  A great way to show how man power can create energy.



 


Hyper Happen/Nokia PUSH Party

In February Sledge created a technology-inspired party for the winners of a digital competition called PUSH, part of the campaign for the Nokia N900.

The N900 is the most powerful device Nokia has ever created, built with Maemo open source software, which means the device can be taken apart and rebuilt, capable of doing things no device has done before.  So nothing could be more perfect than asking the most active and involved hackers and modders around the world to make their visions for the N900 a reality.

The top five inventions were selected and asked to showcase their talent at the PUSH Party, held at Village Underground in Shoreditch, London.

Nokia also commissioned a robotics designer and builder, to create a new installation for Nokia PUSH.  Guests were able to text a specially built robot that triggered a reaction in the environment surrounding it.  There were also some robotic pole dancers and a robotic DJ that caused a bit of a stir!!

Added to all of this were some of Sledges magic ingredients to make one cool party, the night was a great success!
