CUSTOMIZED, MORE SUSTAINABLE EVENT SOLUTIONS FOR A MORE FUTURE-ORIENTED MISSION

VOK DAMS, one of the world's leading agencies for events and live marketing, organised the opening ceremony of Quest One's new production site, the Gigahub. The event focused on Quest One's forward-looking mission: by 2050, the company aims to avoid one per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions through the use of its electrolysers. VOK DAMS was responsible for the conception and production of the opening ceremony, with a focus on customized, more sustainable solutions that were aligned with Quest One's vision and product.

The opening of the Gigahub in Hamburg heralded a comprehensive rebranding of Quest One. The company, previously known as H-TEC SYSTEMS, also unveiled its new corporate design and company name with the opening of the modern production site. VOK DAMS designed the event in such a way that it impressively showcased Quest One's innovative strength and sustainability vision and further supported the rebranding. With the opening of the Gigahub, Quest One is launching the industrial series production of electrolysis stacks, which are the technological centrepiece of electrolysers. Electrolysers are used for the production of green hydrogen. The opening of the modern production site consolidates Quest One's position as a pioneer in the hydrogen economy and sends a clear signal in favour of innovation and sustainability. The kick-off event can be used to create awareness both internally and externally and to underpin a concrete positioning.

The opening ceremony of Quest One's Gigahub attracted around 880 guests, including employees and prominent figures from politics and business. Among the speakers, Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Hamburg's First Mayor Dr Peter Tschentscher presented Quest One's vision for the future together with other high-profile speakers, including Robin von Plettenberg (CEO of Quest One), Dr Uwe Lauber (CEO of MAN Energy Solutions), and Gunnar Kilian (Chairman of the Supervisory Board of MAN Energy Solutions and Volkswagen Group Board Member, Human Resources and Truck & Bus). VOK DAMS orchestrated the contributions to offer the guests inspiring perspectives. An emotional, cross-generational ‘Push the Button’ moment on stage set a powerful signal for the start of Quest One's sustainable future mission.

The visual Vision Walk in the Gigahub, which symbolically led to the tangible ‘1% target’, allowed guests to experience the company's vision at first hand. The aim of the Vision Walk was to raise awareness of the urgency of the current climate challenges and at the same time clarify Quest One's goal. Quest One has set itself the goal of combating the climate crisis by avoiding one per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Through an eye-catching and captivating presentation, guests were informed and actively inspired to join Quest One's mission and work together to create a climate-neutral future. Employees were able to demonstrate their personal commitment to the company's goals by leaving their signatures on the installation.

When planning and producing the event, VOK DAMS and Quest One placed great emphasis on agile and more sustainable solutions that were perfectly aligned with the company's goals and the event.

The latter is reflected, among other things, in the use of green electricity, reusable catering solutions and the digital provision of all information in order to minimize paper consumption. Another focus was on the inclusive and barrier-free design of the event. VOK DAMS thus ensured that the event reflected Quest One's ecological mission and social responsibility, and also set new standards for customized, more sustainable solutions in the event industry.

‘Creating Sustainable Results’ is the motto of VOK DAMS, which aims to establish sustainability as an integral part of events. The cooperation with Quest One shows how innovative and sustainable concepts can be successfully implemented in the event industry. Thanks to its ISO 9001 and ISO 20121 certifications and the ZNU standard for sustainable management, VOK DAMS guarantees the highest quality and responsible behaviour in event design.
