It’s not often we take a moment to pause and reflect on how far we’ve come as a corporate team-building business. The pace of corporate events is fast, but Pinnacle Team Events has always prioritised staying ahead of trends and understanding our clients’ needs to deliver team-building experiences that empower teams to reach their full potential.
Looking Back, Moving Forward: Two Decades of Building Stronger Teams
This month, we proudly celebrate our 20th anniversary. Over the years, we’ve helped countless businesses strengthen connections among their staff, from popular outdoor programs like The Amazing Race and Survivor, to professional development workshops like DISC and LEGO® Serious Play, to lively evenings with Spicks & Specks and Trivia, and our impactful charity events like Tikes on Bikes and SolarBuddy Hour of Power.
Along the way, we’ve faced challenges too—navigating the Global Financial Crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the general ups and downs of running a business. Yet, through it all, one thing has remained constant: our unwavering dedication to meeting the needs of our clients and the hard work of our talented, professional team.
As we mark this milestone, we’d like to take a moment to thank all our clients—past, present, and future—for being an integral part of our story. Your continued trust and partnership have been key to our success.
