## **💫 How It All Began 💫**

For the grand debut of EthCC in Cannes in 2025, the blockchain ecosystem turned out in full force with a packed schedule of side events. Among them was iExec, a leading French blockchain firm, looking for the perfect venue to keep the momentum going once the day's official sessions wrapped up.

## **🌟 The Client’s Brief 🌟**

iExec required a space for 300 guests, with a layout tailored for workshops and keynote presentations.

The requirements included full catering with a cocktail reception and open bar, along with a complete technical setup: sound systems, screens, and microphones.

At the eleventh hour, iExec discovered their event had become one of the most anticipated gatherings of EthCC. We had to quickly scale up capacity by about 60 additional guests—without compromising the guest experience.

The choice fell on [an elegant private beach on the Croisette](https://www.google.com/search?q=https://native-spaces.com/en/venue/private-beach-cannes-lieu-luxe-en-bord-mer-evenements-566), offering stunning views of the Mediterranean. It was an iconic Cannes setting, perfectly equipped to handle a large crowd while maintaining an inviting, upscale atmosphere.

The beach club was already outfitted with top-tier amenities, including professional sound, lighting, and screens. The flexible layout allowed us to seamlessly adjust the capacity and accommodate the extra guests on short notice.

The event was a resounding success, both in terms of attendance and overall experience. The workshops drew even larger crowds than anticipated, yet the flow of the evening remained flawless.

iExec was so impressed that they reached out to us again to find a venue for their next event in Buenos Aires. When things go this well in Cannes, the partnership naturally goes global 😉.

### 💫 How It All Began 💫

For Cannes Lions 2025, Axios wanted to host an event on the very first day of the festival, right in the heart of Cannes. The goal was clear: create a strong editorial meeting point, mixing content, discussions, and networking, while staying easy to access for guests.

The context was not simple. During the Lions, Cannes becomes overcrowded, with venues in high demand and heavy technical constraints.

### 🌟 The Client’s Vision 🌟

Axios wanted to structure the day around three main moments, with an ambitious format.

The day was built around three key time slots (breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack), all following the same structure: first, a panel discussion with speakers, followed by a networking session around food and drinks. This required a stage, a full audiovisual setup, microphones, cameras, lighting, and controlled acoustics.

In total, four 1.5-hour sessions were scheduled, each welcoming around 75 guests. After the talks, an open bar allowed guests to continue conversations in a more informal way.

Finally, Axios wanted to end the day with a VIP dinner for 30 guests, in a more private setting.

### 🍸 The Perfect Venue 🍸

[![CANNES Lions 2025](https://upcdn.io/FW25bqJ/raw/blog/552/A.png)](https://native-spaces.com/venue/restaurant-cannes-150-guests-200m-palais-3334)

The selected venue, [a restaurant located in the heart of Cannes](https://native-spaces.com/venue/restaurant-cannes-150-guests-200m-palais-3334), allowed for smooth organization. Panels took place indoors, in a setting well suited to technical needs and public speaking. Networking sessions after each panel, with food and drinks, were held outdoors, creating a clear contrast and a welcome break between sessions.

For the VIP dinner, a private mezzanine made it possible to create a more exclusive moment, away from the crowd, while staying in the same location.

This choice made it possible to manage several formats in one day, without extra travel or added logistical risk.

The event ran smoothly despite a demanding format. The talks found their rhythm, transitions between content and networking worked well, and the overall experience was seen as clear and pleasant by guests.

Axios successfully delivered a dense but well-executed format, exactly what was needed in a context as intense as Cannes Lions.

### 💫 **How It All Began** 💫

Quantstamp, a South Korean-based startup attending ETHCC 2025 in Cannes, was looking to host a series of events for their team and partners.
Their challenge? The team was overwhelmed by the sheer number of options. They oscillated between a private villa, a restaurant, and even the ambitious—but logistically complex—idea of a private airfield. With time running out, they needed a solution that was both simple and effective.

### 🌟 **The Client’s Vision** 🌟

Quantstamp wanted to organize three distinct events on the same day. The goal was clear: maximize their presence at ETHCC while minimizing logistical headaches.
The schedule kicked off with a breakfast for the team and partners. This was followed by a midday networking event designed for informal exchanges with other ETHCC attendees. Finally, Quantstamp envisioned a high-end private dinner for colleagues and VIP clients to wrap up the day in style.

### 🍴 **The Perfect Venue** 🍴

After reviewing several proposals, Quantstamp fell in love with a vibrant [South American-inspired restaurant](https://native-spaces.com/venue/restaurant-cannes-150-guests-200m-palais-3334). With a capacity for 150 guests and an inventive menu featuring wood-fired meats and fish, fresh ceviche, and creative cocktails, the venue ticked every box.
The icing on the cake? Located just a stone's throw from the Palais des Festivals, it offered effortless access to the heart of the ETHCC action.

## 💫 How It All Started 💫

In 2025, ETHCC (Ethereum Community Conference) was held in Cannes for the first time. The conference, Europe's largest dedicated to the Ethereum ecosystem and Web3, transformed the city from June 30th to July 4th.

For this occasion, Zama, a cryptography-focused unicorn, contacted us to organize an event.

## 🌟 The Client's Request 🌟

The company planned to host **A Breakfast event** for 30 to 40 people. The event needed to be held at a high-quality venue and required a microphone for presentations.

## 🌇 The Chosen Venue 🌇

![ethcc cannes](https://upcdn.io/FW25bqJ/raw/blog/532/A1.png)

After presenting several options, the Zama team selected [a garden, nestled in the heart of Cannes](https://native-spaces.com/fr/venue/lieu-jardin-chic-cannes-diners-evenements-intimes-7306) for the three events. This venue is an exclusive restaurant-bar, hidden behind a discreet facade, offering an intimate setting. Equipped with all the necessary material for a professional event (chairs, screen, microphones, speakers, etc.), it was an ideal location for an effective gathering.

## 💬 Results and Client Feedback 💬

The event was a success with an unexpected turnout: the number of attendees doubled compared to initial forecasts. The managers had anticipated the high attendance by adding extra food, drinks, and a security agent at the entrance, which allowed them to effortlessly manage the larger-than-expected arrival of participants.
