The largest event we’ve done was a corporate day for 5,000 people, involving the UK staff of a company who were finding out about various aspects of Asian culture. We’ve also worked with a major US consulting firm over several days, delivering hands-on seminars to different groups of consultants.
On a different front, we were invited by a major Italian fashion house to help launch one of their new fragrances, and we took part in a special launch event of the Palme d’Or winning film ‘Shoplifters’.
We have also worked with less regulated audiences, appearing in an open-air weekend culture festival in Berkshire, where crowds came to our workshop performances.
Do let us know if you like an initial discussion about a business or corporate opportunity.
We are always keen to discuss how the Japanese tea ceremony workshop can play a positive role in business development and would be delighted share some thoughts.
