Case Study: Ciena Corporation achieves high-impact charitable conference team building with Best Corporate Events

Ciena Corporation donates 2,000+ pounds of Thanksgiving food with Best Corporate Events

Ciena Corporation, a networking systems and software company, faced the challenge of integrating a charitable team building experience into a large-scale conference for 1,200 employees. They wanted to provide engaging options for different personality types while navigating major logistical hurdles caused by a coinciding Formula 1 race in Las Vegas. They partnered with Best Corporate Events to develop a custom multi-program solution.

Best Corporate Events implemented five simultaneous charitable programs, including Autism Awareness Sensory Donation and Donation Nation, and expertly managed the complex logistics from shipping to security. Despite attendance challenges, the event was a success. The measurable impact included donations of over 2,000 pounds of food, 60 sensory kits, 24 wheelchairs, 48 rollators, 360 bears and blankets, and 84 bins of toys to local charities. Best Corporate Events delivered a smooth experience that met Ciena's philanthropic and team engagement goals.
