Setting the stage for IGEL's Now & Next 2026 in Miami.
Now & Next 2026
When IGEL needed a partner to bring their flagship Now & Next event to life in Miami, they turned to Fuel.
We took responsibility for a significant slice of production, shaping how the event looked, how it felt, and how smoothly it ran across months of planning and an intensive week on-site.
Services:
Event branding and creative, Visual identity design, Live show support and technical production, Pre-event communications, Event setup and on-site project management, Expo graphics and environmental design, Video design and production, Keynote deck templates, Speaker briefing and rehearsal management, Event signage and print production, Sponsor artwork coordination, Event project management
The challenge
Now & Next 2026 was positioned as the most ambitious iteration yet, requiring IGEL to deliver a world-class experience to the global endpoint security and EUC community. The scope was substantial: everything from keynote support to Expo design to speaker logistics to sponsor management. The timeline was compressed, and the stakes were high. IGEL needed a partner who could own significant production responsibility while maintaining the quality and polish the event demanded.
The approach
We took comprehensive ownership across multiple domains rather than working in silos. Our project management framework ensured that creative decisions fed into production decisions, and that speaker requirements influenced both stage design and keynote deck templates. We built redundancy into critical paths and established clear communication channels with internal stakeholders, vendors, and speakers. Every deliverable was tracked and reviewed against quality standards before going live. On-site, we maintained real-time oversight of setup, rehearsals, and daily execution.
The solution
The result was a seamless, large-scale experience worthy of IGEL’s ambition. From the visual identity that defined the Expo floor to the speaker rehearsals that ensured confident keynotes to the real-time support during live sessions, every element worked in service of creating something memorable. The event gave the global endpoint security community an experience worth remembering and gave IGEL a stage worthy of their position in the industry.
