Plan your event If the message matters, make an event of it.
Novum Live creates internal communications and employee events for organisations that need people to understand, discuss or act on an important message. We help shape the brief, audience journey, leadership content and format, then agree whether Novum owns one part, several connected workstreams or the whole event.
Corporate & sportThe clear answer
An internal communications event is a live, hybrid or digital experience designed around an organisational message and the people who need to engage with it. The event is the communication environment, not simply the stage or broadcast.
Built for the people holding the brief
From message to experience
Define what people need to understand, discuss or do and why a live, hybrid or digital moment may help.
Set out leadership, client and Novum responsibilities, approvals and the practical boundaries of the brief.
Bring together venue, speakers, creative, delegate experience, digital participation and production only where the message needs them.
Coordinate the agreed experience, then review useful participation, feedback and follow-through signals in context.
01 · The detail
A town hall, leadership event, sales kick-off or employee conference is useful only when it fits the communication objective and audience.
Novum begins with the context, the people involved and the response the organisation wants to support. That creates a clearer brief for leadership content, participation, creative and production.
02 · The detail
Message, audience, content, format, creative, participation and production should support the same communication objective rather than compete as separate workstreams.
That means choosing a live, hybrid or digital format for access and involvement, shaping content and creative around the audience, and planning participation and production as part of the experience from the start.
03 · The detail
Leadership messages, speaker preparation, film, graphics, room design and technical delivery should support the same communication plan.
Novum can coordinate these as one agreed scope or work alongside internal teams and existing partners, with responsibilities and approvals made explicit.
04 · The detail
Remote participation needs more than a camera feed. Content, facilitation, interaction, access and technical resilience should be planned for the people joining away from the room.
The exact digital and production scope is agreed from the audience, platform, content and risk requirements.
05 · The detail
Novum can own one defined part, several connected workstreams or the complete employee-event delivery scope.
Before work begins, the responsibility plan records what Novum owns and what stays with leadership, Internal Communications, HR, venues or other partners. Useful review measures are agreed without promising an invented ROI.

Useful detail for planning, comparing options and writing the brief.
An internal communications event is a live, hybrid or digital experience designed around a message an organisation needs employees to understand, discuss or act on. Formats can include town halls, all-hands, leadership events, sales kick-offs, strategy launches, change events and employee conferences.
An event can give an important message focus, context and room for participation. It allows leaders to explain, employees to ask or respond, and teams to share an experience. Whether an event is appropriate depends on the communication objective, audience and what needs to happen afterwards.
Start with the message, audience, context and intended response. Then consider access, leadership involvement, content, interaction, confidentiality, timing and locations. Those factors should shape whether the experience is in person, hybrid or digital, rather than choosing a format first and forcing the communication into it.
Leadership provides the purpose and voice; content structures the message; creative makes it clear and engaging; production creates the environment in which people experience it. Novum can coordinate those workstreams within an agreed scope or work alongside internal teams and existing partners.
Remote participation should be planned around the content and audience, not added as a camera feed at the end. The scope may include a suitable platform, facilitation, accessible content, interaction, rehearsals, technical support and clear routes for people joining away from the room.
Yes. Novum can support a defined requirement such as content, digital participation or technical production, connect several workstreams, or manage the complete event delivery scope. Responsibilities and approvals are agreed with Internal Communications, HR, leadership and other partners before work begins.
Agree useful indicators before choosing the format. Depending on the objective, these may include attendance, participation, questions, feedback, understanding or completion of a clear next step. The evidence should be interpreted in context and should not be turned into an unsupported return-on-investment claim.
