Broadcasting the World’s Brightest Minds

Founders Forum Global is an annual event that gathers 400 entrepreneurs, 200 unicorn founders, 180 top CEOs, 130 VCs worth £1.5 trillion from across 60 sectors & 35 countries!

For nearly twenty years, it has been on a mission to connect top tech founders with influential investors, CEOs, and government officials.

It creates the ideal environment for collaboration through thought-provoking panel discussions, intimate breakout brainstorms, and candid fireside chats.

JACKSHOOT has been working with Founders Forum for two years to deliver live content to a global audience to give a flavour of the highly exclusive connections made during the event.

Taking place June 2024 in luxurious surroundings at Soho Farmhouse, JACKSHOOT was responsible for ensuring the live broadcast to Bloomberg went smoothly.  

Polished and professional video content of the sessions was also created for sharing via the FFG channel on YouTube and LinkedIn.

This year, we were thrilled to capture on stage:

  • Deepak Chopra, world-renowned pioneer in integrative medicine and personal transformation, who was grilled on his secrets to happiness by Jake Humphry and Damian Hughes of the ‘High Performance’ podcast
  • Marina Hyde and Richard Osman, with a live episode of their hit podcast, ‘The Rest Is Entertainment’.

Other speakers across the site (but not included in the live broadcast) included Alison Darcy of Woebot Labs Inc., Jack Zhang of Airwallex and Martin Varsavsky of fon and Prelude Fertility, Nadine Hachach-Haram of Proximie, Phillip Belamant of Zilch and Sir Colin Humphreys of Paragraf.

Behind-the-scenes insights

Keeping top talent to time is a fine art! 

Our Assistant Producer, Natalie, counted each host in to ensure a smooth start to each session’s broadcast. 

The weather was a little unsettled! While we love our job, de-rigging in cold rain takes some serious digging deep!

Fair play to the wider FFG production team which managed an incredibly impressive event set up, and pack down in very challenging weather.

Final thoughts 

Here’s our joint MD, Abi Hemingway’s take on the event, “Founders Forum Global is a must-attend event for titans across the worlds of tech and innovation.

The gathering is full of fascinating discussions and insights, and this year was no exception. We love being part of helping to create live content to help spread the word on the inspiring work of the Founders Forum Group.“

A happy JACKSHOOT team usually means a happy client and we love the feedback from Lyndsay Summerhill from Founders Forum, “It was such a pleasure working with you last week – hoping we get the chance again soon!”
