Galvanise & Grow

Ultimately, every business is a people business. That means your team is what matters most.

We understand all the challenges involved in turning a group of talented individuals into a tightly knit team. So we’ve developed a whole range of activities to get your people to blossom and bond — whether that’s over an evening, a day or a full weekend.

Indoor Events

We all love the great outdoors. But you can also fire up your team while staying warm and dry.

Whether it’s making chocolates, solving puzzles or taking on an indoor Highland games, we’ll help you boost morale and bond — whatever the weather.

Outdoor Events

Blast away those cobwebs with a dose of fresh-air fun. The great outdoors is where it all began for us, and we’ve built up a wealth of challenging activities to take your team to their limits.

From searches to survival, we’ll get your people out of the office to bring out their best.

Evening Events

Want a work night out with a difference? Let us help you out.

From mixing your own cocktails to blazing away as a band to solving a murder mystery — whatever you choose, we’ll make sure you have an evening to remember.

Virtual & Hybrid Team Building

Sometimes it’s hard to get the whole team together. But we’ve developed a suite of virtual and hybrid events to help you over the geographical hurdles.

Our virtual activities will get your team on the same page and in the same room — even when they’re oceans apart. Or we can put together a team-building experience that offers you the best of both worlds — a hybrid of in-person and remote.

Treasure Hunt Team Building

GPS Treasure Hunts energise teams, promote exploration, and deliver tailored, unforgettable experiences. Suitable for urban or rural venues, teams use iPads and award-winning tech to tackle tasks requiring creativity and problem-solving. Customizable content enhances engagement with corporate branding, company values, and fun challenges.

What’s on the radar right now? Here are some of the eye-catching events we’ve got on the go.

The event was brilliant. Thank you so much to you guys and also Scott and his team on the day. You couldn’t have done more to help and we have had some lovely feedback. We even had people coming to look at the set up so they could copy it for their events, so we did a good job!

Standard Life

I could not be happier with how the event was organised in the months preceding the event and how it was managed on the days. Sarah and her team were both efficient and delightful to work with. I also had positive feedback from my co-host colleagues and a large number of delegates. I am in fact already in dealings with Maximillion again, in preparation of a new international meeting. I highly recommend Maximillion and Sarah Esslemont for leading and organising meeting.

NHS Medical Conference

Mr Nicola de Liguori Carino, MD

Sarah and her team have proved invaluable to the organisation of our flagship event held in London. We partner with leading physicians from across the world to bring the latest thinking in cardiology to the participants, who come from many countries. This requires a team that operates to a high standard and can offer an experience that all involved remember. A foundation of this is the attention to detail, and a drive to get it right – mostly hidden from all when working well, but very obvious if not done. I have no hesitation to recommend Sarah and her team if you have an event you wish to deliver a the highest standards. The Optima team sends all our thanks to them.

We thought the event was organised and ran extremely well. All of our staff had a fantastic time, great fun! Would recommend Maximillion.

Meraki Talent

We held events running over two days. The Maximillion Gameshow which was fun and engaged all who attended the first evening event. During our away day we had Team Tops Trumps in the morning, again this was inclusive for all who were in attendance. Lastly during the afternoon of our away day we took part in Level-up which I have to say was great fun for all involved.

Ross and the team at Maximillion were an absolute pleasure to work with and played a HUGE part in the success of the Phoenix Leadership UnConference 2023! From the very beginning Maximillion embraced the relaxed feel of this year’s conference and helped bring our vision to life! From a bespoke centre stage to Lego figurines, beanbag seating to branded sticky notes – everything was planned and executed to the highest of standards and myself and the wider team could not be happier! Maximillion have delivered many events for Phoenix Group, they are an extended part of the team and we honestly couldn’t deliver the events like we do without them!

Phoenix Group

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

Lee Hamill, Director of Finance

Maximillion provided our group with an incredible Scotland experience. We were in town from America for a small wedding at Dundas Castle. Our group RAVED about the events hosted by Maximillion. They said it made them feel (in a short visit) like they had the opportunity to get a real taste of Scottish culture. The planning, implementation and follow-up with the entire staff was seamless and easy. It was an exceptional experience from start to finish. I can’t think of one thing you could have done better for our group. Thank you so much for everything!

Bonnie Periano

Your team on the night for installation were on time, super efficient and gave clear guidance on usage of the games and when I called to say we’d finished early – returned quickly and dismantled with the same efficiency.

Natwest

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Lake District. Jenny & Rhys are extremely easy to work with and made both our Wednesday evening boat cruise and Thursday team building events, evening meal and band fun and enjoyable for all who attended. We would definitely use them again.Thank you Maximillion.
