  • PTC Brings the “Wow” Factor to LiveWorx With OVATION’s Help

Since 2015, PTC’s key event LiveWorx has been held in Boston’s Innovation District as a one-stop shop for all things digital transformation. 

After a pandemic-induced hiatus, LiveWorx returned in May 2023, bringing together thousands of customers and partners to see industry-leading technologies come to life.

Due to the excitement surrounding the conference, PTC knew they had the opportunity to do something special. So, they chose OVATION as their event production partner to assist in establishing PTC as a thought leader in the digital transformation industry.

At a Glance

What OVATION helped with:

  • General session design and production
  • Expo production
  • Graphic support 
  • Opening video support
  • CEO keynote address
  • Talent sourcing management
  • Social event production

“PTC has worked with Ovation for countless years on our digital transformation conference, LiveWorx. They continuously knock it out of the park with their problem-solving, innovation, cutting-edge creativity, and flawless execution.”

-Sarah North, Director of Operations, PTC

The Challenge

PTC LiveWorx has been an industry event in years past, showcasing leading technologies in the digital transformation industry.

However, with the return of LiveWorx in 2023, PTC needed to transition this industry event to a PTC user event that spotlighted their products and established them as an industry thought leader.

While good for PTC’s overall brand recognition, there were fewer sponsorships for this year’s event, meaning a limited budget and higher stakes.

The Solution

Due to PTC’s budget for this year’s event, OVATION was tasked with keeping costs at a minimum. They did that by:

  • Designing keynote rooms to be repurposed for multiple uses
  • Reallocating equipment and labor from unused areas to keep costs low
  • Utilizing local labor pools wherever possible to keep client travel costs down

General Session Design and Production

OVATION created an environment for LiveWorx that was impressive at first glance. They also helped produce a multi-use stage for keynotes, concerts with live music, and fireside chats.

Expo Production

OVATION worked seamlessly with other vendors to support production in expo booths and open-air theaters.

Graphic Support, Opening Video, CEO Keynote

“Ovation understands what impact and experience means. You’re not only hiring a vendor but a true partner who continues to push the limits and will set your brand and company apart.”

-Sarah North, Director of Operations, PTC

To give you a greater sense of the impact of the LiveWorx 2023 event, we’ll leave you with some key numbers:

  • 10,000+ in-person and virtual attendees
  • 70+ tech demonstrations
  • 320+ sessions, trainings, breakouts
  • 4 days of networking, learning, and fun
  • 1 unforgettable concert from country star Dierks Bentley
