The Brief:
Global tech giant Google celebrated a milestone anniversary in September, marking 25 years since the company was founded in 1998. To celebrate, a special birthday edition of Google’s Sydney office weekly get-together was planned for staff, which this time around, was in need of a standout musical act.
The Collaboration:
As a first-time talent booker, Google Tech Lead Martyn Haigh reached out to acta to assist him in booking an act fit for the celebration. Unsure of who would best suit the event, Martyn utilised acta’s curation team who worked with his brief and budget. Ultimately, the man for the job was everyone's favourite ‘Pizza Guy’ Touch Sensitive!
After making his enquiry, Martyn was swiftly put in touch with Touch Sensitive’s booking agent Village Sounds who used acta’s chat function to negotiate the contract and other important information such as travel logistics and production requirements. Being his first rodeo, being able to directly communicate using acta streamlined the event process and helped to keep Martyn and his team informed and updated.
Using acta for our event was fantastic. Their platform efficiently facilitated the booking of Touch Sensitive, making the process straightforward and effective. With acta’s assistance, each phase, from contract discussions to event logistics, was handled with ease and professionalism, ensuring a smoothly executed, and very fun event. - Martyn Haigh (Tech Lead, Google)
The Outcome:
For this incredible event, Touch Sensitive lit up the dancefloor, with staff becoming swept away by his dynamic and groovy tunes. The chance to commemorate Google's remarkable quarter-century of influence on the world was an opportunity not to be missed, and Touch Sensitive's performance added a special and unforgettable dimension to this significant occasion.
