Overview

SBS Bank’s 150th Gala & Annual Awards Dinner was an extremely important event for the company. We were thrilled that SBS trusted Watson & Wyatt to deliver a spectacular event like Southland had never seen before.

We designed the event to reflect back on SBS’s proud history but also look forward to the future. This included a pre-dinner museum experience followed by a walk through time and then a technology future-forward focus for the awards evening.
