CPA EMERGING LEADERS
For the Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario Emerging Leaders Awards, Charlie & Sprocket went to the heart of downtown Toronto to transform the elegant Sky Suite at the Bisha Hotel into a VIP experience for the 100+ guests. From the moment guests entered the room, the event space was set for a very special night to be remembered.
The Emerging Leader Award celebrates and recognizes distinguished younger members of CPA Ontario (34 years of age and under) who are seen as socially responsible leaders and innovators, already making notable contributions with significant impact.
The theme, “Leadership is a Choice” was a salute to the evening’s nominated winners by showcasing the diversity of talent and accomplishments within business, in their communities and beyond.
The young nominees were all individually lauded in front of their family and friends by CPA President, Carol Wilding and Council Chair Jean Degagné as well as recognition in the national edition of The Globe & Mail. With additional coverage across multiple social media platforms, the hope was to inspire other up-and-coming CPA members to become passionate fans of the Emerging Leaders program.
Set in an environment that exuded youthfulness, excited futuristic energy, Charlie & Sprocket leaned into the theme with AI portraits of the Emerging Leaders that were backlit with dynamic lighting effects to match the dark moody atmosphere for the night.
C&S led the design, production and execution of this exclusive event. Highlights included sustainable custom décor assets, vibrant floral styling and live entertainment. Throughout the evening guests were entertained by Yan the strolling Mentalist as well as DJ Bianca, accompanied by saxophonist Stuart Brignall.
The evening was best summed up by CPA Conference & Events Manager Sasha Basiri , “Charlie and Sprocket has been an absolute pleasure to work with from our first meeting. They have become our trusted go-to event design and production partners. We have full confidence that we are in great hands when it comes to bringing our event dreams to life!”
