Meeting Magic facilitates Survivor Conference for Castaway Television Productions Ltd

9th February 2011

Meeting facilitation company, Meeting Magic, worked with Castaway Television Productions to deliver their Survivor Conference on 24th and 25th January 2011 in the UK.

Castaway Television Productions Ltd are the creators and owners of the Emmy Award winning “Survivor” TV show. Launched in 1997, “Survivor” is the king of the reality genre, and is broadcast across the world. Over 70 different territories have made their own local format versions. In the show, sixteen people are sent to a desert island with barely the clothes on their backs. Only one will survive. Cameras follow their every move as they attempt to become the ultimate "Survivor" and winner of a huge cash prize.

The two-day "Survivor" Conference brought together 30 producers of "Survivor" programmes from 18 countries worldwide. The objective was for the participants to share ideas, network and identify opportunities for collaboration.

Julia Dick of Castaway Television Productions Ltd commented, “Meeting Magic transformed the conference. They ensured that everyone’s needs were recognised, equally valued and achieved. They managed to structure the two days so that everyone was engaged and participating. All the key points were recorded in an enjoyable format that will ensure they are used in the future.”

Katherine Woods, founder of Meeting Magic concludes, “Castaway Television Productions fully embraced the presence of Meeting Magic as third party facilitators. Our presence allowed them to build on relationships, ‘host’ and observe the conference and make adjustments to ensure all participants were able to contribute and benefit. Most importantly, they were able to join in and fully benefit from the content as they were freed from the role of facilitating.”
