Live Team Manifesto and Freeman

We are in the business of meaningful connections.

Whether it's people, things, or ideas, Freeman has been the catalyst of connection for 94 years. And we believe these connections can change the world. Make things happen. And build our future.

When we connect, in real-time, we change each other for the better. We broaden our vision and create focus at the same time. Conferences, conventions, conference calls. Presentations, parties, and parades.

In the face of global distancing, we must work together to create human connections and make them as meaningful as possible. We can use every technology to bridge our divides. And to help our customers reach their people, inspire them, and hold on to them.

We can make it safe. Yet also deep, and powerful, and moving.

Now is the time to act. We are bringing together the talent and heart of our industry to continue our legacy of meaningful connection. We're ready to move forward and evolve the practice of LIVE, connecting to the ever-expanding world of talent. Together, we are ready for the future of events.

Please join us if you share this vision so that we may move forward together, and make it happen!

FAQ’s
What is Live Team and the Talent Network Project (TNP)?

Live Team is a community initiative for event industry talent. We are launching this site as part of an effort to help our industry recover and get back on track quickly. We believe one of the best ways to start planning for this business coming back is to create a network of talent in our community so that once events start again, we can get you prepared for qualified opportunities.

The Talent Network Project (TNP) is our way to activate this community. Our goal with TNP is to bring together a diverse industry talent pool and then using our resources and this community, work together to stay on top of industry opportunities, make connections and collectively continue to build and develop our skill base.

How do I get involved with the Talent Network Project?

It’s easy, we have created a Talent Registry, which will be the place for you to share information about yourself. We will be asking for information about you, what you are looking for and how we can help. You will create a profile, and share your information. Your profile will be password protected, and you can update, change or modify information at any time

Why a Talent Registry?

This registry will help the Freeman hiring managers understand who is available and what skills they have. It will also help us create programming and deliver community sessions to help this get the talent pool back to work, and we have an opportunity to build a community of passionate event professionals that have time to share, learn and network as they prepare to re-enter to job force.

Why is Freeman creating a Talent Registry?

The COVID pandemic has hastened a permanent change on the world and our industry, and while we believe that there is pent-up demand for live events to return when health conditions allow, the new prevailing model for the event industry for years to come will likely be a hybrid of live and virtual events. We want to be prepared and help bring the Talent Network Project's talent pool and the industry along swiftly and prepare them for the new gig economy.

A Freeman Initiative

Getting the industry back on track is a major focus for Freeman, and giving industry talent a place to gather, connect, share, network and learn is a priority. In order to do this, we launched LiveTeam.com, which will host the Talent Network Project and Talent Registry. As part of this site, you will be able to register and get access to a community, attend special trainings and learn about opportunities as they become available.

In addition to this initiative, Freeman is active in partnering with Go LIVE Together, a coalition to help the event industry recover from the impact of COVID-19 and protect events as a vital part of our economy and communities.
