ABOUT YOUR TRAINER

Martijn Timmermans is Co-founder, of Event StoryBoard Canvas and the award winning experience design agency The Red Line Project.

He started his career in experience marketing at Disneyland Paris, Marriott and Singapore Airlines, and transitioning into events as a producer for KenwoodX and as a meeting designer and facilitator.

Martijn believes the Event industry is sitting on a holy grail. If we use the magic of storytelling we can design and execute events that have both autonomous and shared experiences. For his views and experience on meeting design, audience engagement and storytelling practices he is invited to speak frequently.

In 2015 he co-founded Event StoryBoard, www.storyboard.events, as a result of a simple observation: audiences expect to be engaged, connected and amazed during their event experience, but events are struggling to do so. This need led Martijn to create a vision for storytelling event design and a canvas to support it. With an easy to use, fast and visual design approach, events can become amazing experiences that are meaningful and unique. They’re on a mission to create a world full of memorable experiences!
