We present fully developed concepts to our clients – from the rationale and content-driven programme to the entertainment, set design, and communication.
Each event is unique. And we always strive to create surprising, impactful, sustainable and feasible concepts – designed to engage the target audience and achieve our clients’ objective.

Leading event agency

Obsession is growing and on the move. Our years of experience and a loyal, driven team have made us one of the leading players in the corporate events sector. We are proud to be B Corp certified and operate in a socially responsible way. Our diverse portfolio of clients includes major corporate brands such as Siemens, KPN, Schiphol and Jacobs Douwe Egberts. At the same time, we develop social and content-driven events for non-profits and public sector bodies like the Council for Child Protection, the Chamber of Commerce (KVK), Rijkswaterstaat, and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. At Obsession, we create events that drive growth for our clients. We connect people, brands and organisations – and we do this together, with passion, dedication, and expertise. We combine strategy and creativity with a hands-on mentality. Our culture is built on true partnership. We always support one another, work towards shared goals, and most importantly – we have a lot of fun doing it.

We are Obsession – Partners for Live.
