Final corporate anniversary: milestone gala, tenure gift for the long-serving employee and numbered memorabilia for the strategic client that carry the anniversary year into the corporate boardroom and into the partner's office

The corporate anniversary — whether closing 10, 25, 50 or 80 years of operation — is the event where the CEO decides to show institutional continuity, recognize the employee with tenure, thank the strategic client with a numbered memorabilia piece, and project the next cycle to the board. An anniversary executed without structure ends with the employee leaving the gala unrecognized, the strategic client leaving without a takeaway, and the brand without editorial content to fuel the next year of conversation. We work with corporates across Mexico City, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Querétaro, Mérida, Puebla, León and Saltillo. Invoiced under CFDI 4.0 to the SAT, 16% VAT, deductible as Public Relations expense or as Human Capital expense depending on the fiscal case.

Five layers of the final corporate anniversary

Milestone gala with branded audiovisual production

Branded audiovisual production for the milestone: institutional video of three to five minutes with photographs from the decades covered, interviews with the founder or with the historical CEOs, timeline printed in animated graphics, animation of the corporate isotype with the anniversary number in classical typography, and a soundtrack of original Mexican music (commission to a Mexican composer or archival piece of the corporate if it exists). The video is projected on LED screen during the gala and delivered afterwards in MP4 format to the Internal Communications area for use on social media and at later events. For 50-year and 80-year anniversaries we also produce a coffee-table book in leather binding with a numbered print run of 200 to 500 copies for employees and VIP guests.

Tenure recognition gift for long-serving employees

Tangible recognition for the employee with 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or more years of tenure: watch engraved with the employee name and the corporate logo on dial and on back case (Citizen, Fossil, Casio or Bulova for mid-range; Tag Heuer, Longines or Tissot for high-range), silver or gold jewelry piece with the corporate isotype, acrylic or wood plaque with the employee name and years of service, framed diploma in leather signed by the CEO, and a complementary gift (premium wine or whisky bottle, gourmet box, artisan mug, executive desk set). For employees with 25 or more years of tenure we handle higher-value gifts with personalized engraving delivered in gala protocol during the toast.

Numbered memorabilia for the strategic client

Souvenir piece for the strategic client that carries the anniversary number into the office: Montblanc pen engraved with the corporate logo and the anniversary number on the cap, Talavera de Puebla jar with the anniversary number hand-painted, obsidian sculpture from Oaxaca with engraved base, signed lithograph of contemporary Mexican artist with limited print run, porcelain mug with the corporate isotype in high relief, or wooden box with a selection of Mexican gourmet products (Chiapas coffee, Oaxaca chocolate, Oaxaca mezcal). The piece is delivered in leather pouch or wooden box with a personalized card from the CEO signed by hand.

Anniversary merchandising for staff and attendees

Anniversary merchandising for staff, suppliers and general attendees: combed cotton t-shirt with the corporate isotype on chest and the anniversary number on back, color according to the brand manual; cap with embroidered anniversary; tote bag with silkscreen of the anniversary; engraved thermos with the corporate year; notebook with anniversary cover; set of anniversary stickers for exit giveaway; anniversary metal pin for staff lapel.
