Description

VIBES & BEATS is an entertainment company and event producing, focused on hiring national and international artists. They have organized successful events in some of the country's largest venues, such as the Altice Arena, Campo Pequeno, Lisbon Coliseum, Porto Coliseum, Guimarães Multiusos, and Super Bock Arena. 

After two years (2020 and 2021) in which the production company was forced to freeze its activity, this campaign aims to leverage the company financially so that it can operate without cash flow constraints in 2023. This type of funding is especially important in an industry that requires securing costs before the shows are performed, which are later settled by the ticket sellers (usually 15 days after the events).

Vibes & Beats' agenda includes brand activation and exposure in large venues. Examples are the tours by Luan Santana, Zé Felipe, Simone, Eros Ramazzotti, The Waterboys, and Djavan in 2023, among others. Its goals are to create new concepts for events, concerts, and festivals, where music is not the only focus.

 


The Impact

Promotion of cultural economic activity: strengthening trade in cultural goods and services provides stimulation for local and national markets, which in turn provides employment opportunities and promotes local production. This is especially important after the cultural sector suffered serious setbacks by the Covid-19 pandemic in the last two years, and starts now to recover. The financing of Vibes&Beats enables:

  • Maintenance of 6 full-time formal jobs
  • Creation of 2 new full-time jobs during 2023, for production and communication
  • Boost of national cultural industry: partnering with around 80 other national companies for the realization of the events – including marketing, communication, and structures services, it encourages the cultural infrastructure.

Promotion of cultural diversity and heritage: the realization of the events promotes and recognizes national artists, cultural production, and heritage, and by bringing international artists to tour it contributes to an appreciation of cultural diversity.

Improvement in environmental responsibilities of events: the event North Music Festival produced by Vibes&Beats has begun in their 4th edition in 2022 to value measures to decrease the event’s environmental footprint, such as the exclusive use of reusable cups. However, the organization recognizes a longer way to go, and commit to more environment-friendly initiatives for the 5th edition of the event in 2023. Once these specific measures are set, the promoter plans to update investors.
